RAGTIME MUSIC

MUSIC PLAYED WITH SAMPLED TROMBONE NOTES. Sampled notes are prerecorded notes, so this is music as played by a trombone. Many selections and features.

MUSIC PLAYED WITH SAMPLED VIOLIN NOTES WHAT VIOLIN SAMPLED NOTES ARE: Violin sampled notes are notes recorded from an actual violin. What is done here is, I downloaded the notes. I trimed them into monoaural 1 second files. I found the notes of songs. Then when playing a song, I play the appropriate files. This is superior to other methods of recreating a violin because it is an actual violin playing.

Here is a George M Cohan song on piano

Here is piano music written on Musescore4.

WHAT IS RAGTIME? An infectious type of music Not many things can surprise, but I was recently surprised by finding a “new” type of music - Ragtime. While writing piano music for my computer. I decided to look for a program to write music notation. I found MUSESCORE4 which does the job. They also have a libraby of music scores that can play. Some of it has graciously been made public domane. There I found a collection of Ragtime pieces arranged by year. It was hugely unknown to me. In 1897, Scott Joplin wrote down a piano piece in Ragtime. He needed extra study to do so. It was a big hit in the USA and the world. In the following thirty years, similar pieces were written and sold mostly as sheet music and piano rolls. This was obviously an age of piano music. People had pianos, played pianos, listened to them, danced to them. Ragtime music seeks piano novelty within its two handed happy framework. It is American Music and as such has a newness, freshness, freedom. It is optimistic. It died out in the late 1920's. People had enough? Classical music also ended. Ragtime has had revivals. Two of Scott Joplins "rags" were made popular in the 70's. However it did not extend to the others in the inventors. There are probably hundreds, if not thousands of them. Finding these is similar to the discovery of dinosaurs - there was a whole lost world. Ragtime music is nice background music sounding, like music from a Western Saloon. It is surprisingly complicated. What I have done: I made a player to make the music available. I am not a sophisticated music player user but I made a player that seems useful to me. It can play in the background of talk shows using one computer; this is why I made it partial screen with adjustable volume. There are eleven Ragtime players on TES with twenty tunes each, including the rags arranged in years as put there by CEANTHIC in a set. I hope you like this music; it was very popular once upon a time. Paul Skittone

I LOVE A PIANO FROM AN IRVING BERLIN SHOW OF 1920. ONE OF HIS BEST EFFORTS.

A MUSIC SCANNING PROGRAM HOW TO ENTER MUSIC FROM A PAGE This is a program to enter music from a music sheet into your computer. I thought it would be simple to do! Having it totally automatic might be possible but is complicated in many ways. Notes can be of different sizes. Notes can be of different shapes. There can be stray marks on the score. A myriad of symbols must be accounted for. FOR MORE DOWNLOAD THIS PRODUCT
