Program Notes
Scott Joplin (1868-1917) is best known for his piano rags. But he also wrote songs, waltzes, and marches for piano, the mainstays of publishers' catalogs in the 19th and early 20th centuries.
The Rosebud Café was a popular gathering place for African-Americans in St. Louis, Missouri, at the turn of the 20th century. It offered an eatery, bar, dance hall, and brothel. It was also a performance venue for ragtime pianists, including Joplin. Its owner, Tom Turpin, was also a composer of piano rags. Joplin wrote The Rosebud March for piano in 1905 and dedicated it to Turpin. Joplin deftly captures the style of band marches of that era with a piece that sounds more like Sousa than Joplin.
