Nice arrangement!

I'm quite a fan of ragtime music, and have in the past, arranged a few
Scott Joplin tunes for woodwind quintet. The music lends itself easily
to arrangement, but it is quite deceptive when it comes to tempo and
technique.

It looks like it will be a joy to play! Thanks! (not a paid endorsement)

btw, can you tell us anything about the composer, Adeline Shepard? I
noticed the date on the work, and became quite curious.

Patricia Smith

ps. Scott Joplin's piano music by itself is a GREAT reason to continue
practicing piano!
