Maple Leaf Rag by Scott Joplin arr. by Emre Sabuncuoglu

In celebration of Black History Month, we’re honoring the great Scott Joplin. Dubbed the King of Ragtime, Joplin reinvigorated American popular music and popularized the African American sound across Europe. He also wrote two operas and one ballet during his short but prolific career. The piece was originally written for solo piano. In this arrangement, we bring Joplin’s lively syncopation and playful rhythms to the classical guitar, in the original key. Arranged and performed by Emre Sabuncuoglu.

This will result in a much more clear and smooth video for most viewers. On PCs and laptops with slower processor speeds, however, this can produce a choppy playback on 1080p. A quick workaround is to lower the quality to 720p or to install a free browser plugin such as ’h264ify’. #laga #emresabuncuoglu
