Description
Ragtime and early jazz pieces often had colorful titles to capture the attention of the sheet music purchaser. James L. King III does it again with this “Professor King” themed vaudeville-style “strut” similar in style to Professor King’s Celebrated All-Purpose Exceptional Invigorating Effectacious Good Time Spirited Composition for the Modern Piano-Forte and Professor King’s Optimistic Rag! Heaping with hot touches like chromatic scales, easy ragtime lh-bass patterns, “rooster-crow” licks, and a punny tempo marking, it’s the kind of piece that makes everyone smile! (Striped vest, and porkpie hat suggested but not included.)
Key: D major
Mood: happy, bouncy, fun
