Maple Leaf Rag [Scott Joplin] *** Approximately ***

In this video I play Maple Leaf Rag by Scott Joplin. It's in Ab. I play it rather quickly but you'll get the idea. I miss out one section and also play it to my arrangement. I also don't really play the proper stride piano left hand for the B section but I'm not a good enough player to do that! I learned this tune when I was about 14 years old and it's a fun one to play, and quite impressive to a non-musician.

This channel is about me playing some of my favourite tunes in an approximate manner-not quite perfect and not necessarily in the right key either. I’ve selected these tunes due to them having what I think is an amazing melody, sweet, sweet harmonic structure or for some other inexplicable reason. They might just be fun to play on piano.

Enjoy but please don’t bug me about inaccurate, sloppy musicianship because (a) I already know, and (b) that’s what this channel is, sort of, about. There are plenty of other better musicians out there on YouTube for you to ogle.
