The Entertainer: Study Score Scott Joplin

Joplin's classic piano piece became immensely popular after its use in the 1973 film The Sting. It's always been a favorite, though. The original piano version was reprinted several times after its first appearance in 1904. Sargeant's outstanding new orchestration requires only a Beethoven-sized orchestra and is sure to be an enjoyment to audiences everywhere whether they are familiar with Joplin's original or not.
