    The cover image of the original sheet music for this song says that it was written by Joseph Lamb and arranged by Scott Joplin. If anyone can tell me what Scott Joplin did to make the song exactly, I would be really interested to know. [Edit: @dylan-kerry has provided more information below]
    Tomorrow I will play the first song in my Thanksgiving series of songs.
    I am still getting better from being sick. Also while I was sick I ate some mango and we did not know that I am allergic to mangos and it made my face get swollen. I am almost all better but not all the way yet. I will not eat mangos anymore. The doctor said that mangos can be like poison oak for some people.

      Scott Joplin didn't arrange the piece. He simply put his name on it so it would sell better. A piece of Lambs Joplin did help a bit with was the Dynamite rag where he changed a chromatic scale to be contrary motion.
      Here is a playlist of Lamb talking about and recording some of his music at an old age, he wasn't at his best and hadn't played for a while but they're still great to listen to: ua-cam.com/play/OLAK5uy_mlqbs9kFgetpDOiV59YqOYO7DPtfKHPo0.html

    Hi Leander,
    When I saw you play Franz Liszt the day before , you looked pretty tired and
    I thought it was perhaps because it was dark and too late already but now I understand why. Poor you. Hope you feel really well again soon.
    But today you got already more energy, the way you played !
    You could also wait a few days with a new piece and relax a bit more.
    We don't mind to wait , more important now for you to take it easy perhaps.

  • @johnyoung2705
    @johnyoung2705 Місяць тому

    Leander, you asked a great question about why Scott Joplin's name is on this sheet music. It was just for one reason, to help sell the music.
    Scott Joplin liked to help young ragtime composers. When he met one with real talent, he would introduce them to his publisher, who would publish their sheet music with Joplin credited as the arranger.
    This was very helpful for sales because if Scott Joplin's name was on it, people knew it had to be good!
    It's kind of funny, but we do not know whether Joplin actually did anything to the music. (Very likely he did not.) But lending his name was plenty, since using Joplin's name allowed Joseph Lamb and others to make a name for themselves!

    Joseph Lamb imitated Scott Joplin, but there is no evidence they ever met. Lamb was almost 20 years younger than Joplin. Lamb was from NJ (middle-class white), and Joplin did not make it to NYC until 1907, where he looked very hard for a producer/publisher for Treemonisha. Joplin was in a dire financial situation and very ill by then. He lived in Harlem until his death in 1917 and was buried in St. Michael's Cemetery in an unmarked grave (until 1970). One of the greatest American composers, and it wasn't until the movie "The Sting" that people, once again, paid attention to the great Scott Joplin.
    To answer your question, I have not seen evidence that Joplin worked on Lamb's material. Scott Joplin was a proud man, and it would probably have irked him to arrange a piano piece (Lamb's) that tried so hard to imitate Joplin's great and unique "Maple Leaf Rag."
    Aside from the lyrics (rather hokey), Treemonisha has some incredibly beautiful music... and it's been recorded several times for piano, including "The Complete Works of Scott Joplin, played by Richard Zimmerman.
    Get well and don't sit "Under the Mango Tree!" (Song in the movie Dr. No) :)

    Leander, did the mango skin (peel) touch your face? Many, if not most, people are sensitive to something in the skin of the mango and get rashes from it if it touches their skin. If a little bit of the peel got in with the fruit you were eating that could be why you had a reaction. It may be that you can tolerate mangos just fine as long as you have your parents make absolutely sure there is no trace of the skin in what you’re eating, and no mango skin touches your face.
