The Cake-Walk Patrol..1895..William Henry Krell

[Steve Harrison]

Published two years before The Mississippi Rag, this is a fine example of an early cakewalk. It is described as a narrative cakewalk and as such I've added the text from the piano score that leads you through the story. The piano score is written in F/Bb but I've arranged it in C/F as it better fits the banjo. There are lots of grace notes which I find a bit too much so I've added a note that they are optional (or at at least you could pick and choose which ones to play). The score and midi are in the library..Steve.
