Tom Boy (1907).. Rag march and two step.. W. B. Bradford.

This was suggested by Marc a short time back. He wasn't sure how it would sound on the banjo however his apprehension was unfounded. I had to arrange it in F/Bb to get it all to fit, other than that, it sounds just fine. Its's a good piece of ragtime, I couldn't find anything out about the composer. The score and midis are in the library..Steve.

Well done!

Can't ask for a nicer little rag. At bit stratospheric there in bits but it sure sounds good.

I'm gonna have to work on this one!

Thanks!!

Thanks Marc, I had to use some of the high octave stuff to get it all to fit, I did try lowering it  but ran out of notes at the bottom end. This is often the case when trying to arrange piano music for banjo. F major is usually the favourite key as it allows for a wider range of top and bottom end notes....Steve.
