1904 was a great year for ragtime. Published, for some obscure reason, under the name of Barney & Seymore, this piece was actually written by Theron C. Bennet. It doesn'treally fall under the strict classification of "classical" ragtime but is, rather, a cakewalk. This was the first ragtime style piece I ever learned. The version I learned was a rather"folk" oriented arrangement by the well-known New York City singer/guitarist Dave van Ronk. At some point I dropped the number from my repertoire but came into contactwith it again in an arrangement by Ton van Bergeyk in the middle 70's. I so like a couple (but not all) of the solutions that he used that I went back and created this arrangemusing elements taken from both artists.
The last note in measure 8 should be fretted with the middle finger in order to take you into the correct chord position in measure 9. Leave your middle and ring fingers in plaas anchors throughout the run taking place in measures 9-12.
I fret the A note on the second 1/8th of measure 27 by flattening my ring finger down from the 4th string above it. Don't release the 2nd fret, 4th string while doing this.
The transition from D to G on the 3rd beat of measure 29 is a little tricky as it requires you to move your middle finger from the 1st to the 6th string in a single 1/8th note intePractice makes perfect.
The C# on the2nd beat of 59 is fretted by again flattening the middle finger fretting the 3rd string.
Now we get to the tough part. Although not often reflected in guitar arrangements, ragtime piano scores often call for section repeats to be performed a full octave higher thanfirst time around. This is easy enough for a pianist with a 7 1/2 octave range and separate hands for playing bass and melody but it usually ends up calling for us poor guitaristeither give up the bass line or learn to do 12 fret stretches!
The reason I had droppped Dave van Ronk's version of this tune was that, at the time, my left-hand thumb just couldn't hold the stretch necessary for his final variation of thefirst section. When I decided to put together my own version of it I discovered two things: Dave's variation didn't follow the rhythms of the original and my thumb had gottenenough exercise that I could now hold the stretch required.
There's not really a lot that needs to be said about this section. The melody line lies comfortably under the fingers and the bass line is, in itself, simple. The only problem is thefret stretch while keeping the melody going.
Although I realize that the third chord in 97 could simply have been slid down two frets for the last chord, I prefer to make the change indicated as a sort of middle step for geinto the opening G chord in measure 98.
