Joplin-Ragtime Collection vol. 1 arr. Weatherson (SP)-X/M - Product Information
Scott Joplin Ragtime Collection Volume 1 arranged by Scott Weatherson. Each volume of this collection contains six of Joplin's ragtime piano solos, arranged for xylophone solo with marimba accompaniment. The pieces contained in these volumes are intended as duets between the student and teacher, with the student playing the solo part and accompanied by their teacher on marimba.
The xylophone parts have been written in the style of G.H. Green, adding frequent double stops to the melody line to create extra color and harmony. Two versions of each marimba accompaniment have been included, firstly a version which is playable with only three mallets (4.3-octave marimba) and is suitable for intermediate marimba students. The second is a fuller realization of the accompaniment part utilizing four mallet (5-octave marimba) playing with busier movement in the left hand mimicking the stride style of ragtime playing.
