    This song is already well and truly engraved in my brain and fingers. My friend and I have a duet arrangement we play together. So fun!
    But, the answer is that it's the first piece in history to have sold 1 million copies of the sheet (although it's debated whether it's true or not). I like to believe it as Joplin is a bit of a personal hero!

    • @HDpiano

      Answer: CORRECT! And totally... what a beast.

  • @jasneskis
    @jasneskis 5 років тому +1

    Sure would be nice to see the written score for the way you are playing this.I cannot follow watching and or lessening. The first thing you said was Ab chromatic to E but I didn’t see you do that at all. Then you went on.. I had no idea where you were. Couldn’t see notes being played or understand what you said to play. I found the music so hopefully Will be able to learn with you. Hopefully quicker than learning the Entertainer. I am still struggling with that in just a couple of places.
