About this piece
A ragtime piece of 1902 in F major that moves to B-flat major for its middle strain, with the steady left hand and syncopated right hand of the style.

About this score
This is the complete piece, not an excerpt. The notes were converted from the Mutopia Project's public-domain typesetting of Elite Syncopations (piece 1540, typeset from the source “John Stark & Son”; licence: Public Domain) and checked against Mutopia's MIDI file, note for note (repeats included). The score is the same music in a different file format; we dedicate our conversion to the public domain (CC0 1.0). Mutopia Project page
