Why is it called Maple Leaf Rag?
Joplin's most famous composition, "Maple Leaf Rag," was published while he was living in Sedalia, Missouri. It was named after the Maple Leaf Club; the date the club was founded is uncertain, but it was no later than November 24, 1898, when the first Maple Leaf ball was held.

Plenty of world-class pianists have small hands, including Alicia de Larroccha and Vladimir Ashkenazy, and yet they seem to be able to cope with the most physically demanding works in the repertoire. Physical attributes should never deter someone from learning the piano...

Of course we can. I have played so many pieces by Liszt and Rach that my advice for people with small hands is to learn to be fast with arpeggiating the large chords. |

You're very self-motivated! I saw so many songs you played in your profile page. You really dare to try many different types of pieces. Well done! |
The Siena Piano, known also as the ‘Harp of David Piano’ and the ‘Immortal Piano’, underneath the legend what we’re talking about here is a plain old upright piano. It is said that the piano has mysterious qualities, in that its sound can change depending on the style and music which is played. One moment it sounds like a piano, then a harpsichord, sometimes like a bell and then like a violin.

Piano is the best instrument to start a strong musical foundation on. There are two categories of reasons why this is the case. The first category of reasons has to do with ease of learning and the second category of reasons is about the piano’s long-term purpose as a tool for any kind of musician.

Professor Cooper’s edition does throw one blindingly obvious change at the music world. There are no longer 32 Beethoven piano sonatas, as books and performers will tell you, but 35. Not that Professor Cooper has discovered three more. Rather, he has reconsidered and admitted to the canon three early sonatas written when Beethoven was 12, usually set aside as juvenilia.
“I can find no reason why they shouldn’t be counted,” he said, “and indeed they were in the first complete edition... See More

“I can find no reason why they shouldn’t be counted,” he said, “and indeed they were in the first complete edition of the sonatas, published just after Beethoven’s death by his friend Haslinger, who presumably knew what Beethoven wanted. They are fully fledged, three-movement works, and if they lack something in quality, you could say the same of some of the Opus 49 Sonatas, and you surely wouldn’t exclude those from the canon.

Henry frequently crosses over the boundary of classical music and K-pop. Henry recalls the pleasure of meeting and working with Yiruma, the pianist, during the preparation of his first album. As always, new relationships build up new memories, and this one was special. This is how the collaboration of Henry and Yiruma began.
