A Garland of Rags for Piano from Peter Schickele
Schickele A Garland of Rags

King of Prussia, PA – Over the course of his prolific career as a composer, Peter Schickele has created and performed a number of piano rags, a form that he has always enjoyed. In A Garland of Rags (160-00223 - Score - $9.99), Schickele has assembled five rags written for various occasions, now made available for pianists of intermediate to advanced skills. The score includes his notes describing the genesis of each piece.

Composer, musician, author, and satirist, Peter Schickele is internationally recognized as one of the most versatile artists in the field of music. His works--now well in excess of 100 for symphony orchestras, choral groups, chamber ensembles, voice, movies and television--have given him "a leading role in the ever-more-prominent school of American composers who unselfconsciously blend all levels of American music" says John Rockwell of The New York Times. To learn more about Peter Schickele, visit our Composer Gallery or www.schickele.com.

A Garland of Rags is available now through Theodore Presser Company, or your favorite music retailer.
