Описание к видео Joplin plays Joplin his original 1916 piano roll Weeping Willow

Artis Wodehouse pianolizes Scott Joplin's own 1916 piano roll of his great 1903 ragtime composition, Weeping Willow.

Wodehouse plays Joplin's roll (Connorized 10277) on a restored 1912 player piano made by Bush & Lane of Chicago. This instrument has been referred to as "the Bentley of player pianos". Restored by Paul Manganaro.

It is thought that Joplin preferred slow tempi for his ragtimes, but Wodehouse follows the roll speed marked on the roll and the expression line printed on the roll which guides her dynamics.

Video filmed 3/28/20 in South Hero, Vermont.
