Description: Scott Joplin was an educated Negro who was educated in music and the piano and he was able to sell his compositions to earn a good living. He sold his music to the white market but I felt it would be interesting to hear his compositions played on Negro instruments it adds a new exciting dimension |

"I wish to preach, not the doctrine of ignoble ease, but the doctrine of the strenuous life, the life of toil and effort, of labour and strife; to preach that highest form of success which comes, not to the man who desires mere easy peace, but to the man who does not shrink from danger, from hardship, or from bitter toil, and who out of these wins the splendid ultimate triumph."
Roosevelt's speech inspired Scott Joplin to write Strenuous Life |
