A syncopated folk rag from Atlanta which comes across almost like an early jazz novelty, but this from 1909. Has an unusual but awkward double introduction. The A and B strains are notated with some errors in note durations, so how this score is actually presented is open to some interpretation. I've chosen to maintain a syncopated rhythm throughout, but it is possible to play some of these corrected measures on the beat if adjusting it that way. The Trio oddly shifts into a straight march rhythm making for a notable contrast. Walter L. Dunn is credited with two scores, both self-published from Atlanta. Original score source is from the University of Colorado at this link: https://cudl.colorado.edu/ll/detailView.html?mid=UCBOULDERCB1~78~78~1102139~306529&manifestUrl=https%3A%2F%2Fcudl.colorado.edu%2Fluna%2Fservlet%2Fiiif%2Fm%2FUCBOULDERCB1~78~78~1102139~306529%2Fmanifest&os=0&lc=UCBOULDERCB1~78~78&q=Queen%20of%20rags&baseUrl=%2F%2Fcudl.colorado.edu%2Fluna%2Fservlet%2Fas%2Fsearch&mediaType=MISC This is a reproduction of the original score but with multiple changes in note durations, a couple in the A strain and several more in the B strain. A typical example is how measures 34 and 35 are corrected to match the rhythmic pattern of 33. There are a few ways to interpret the errant measures, you're all welcome to interpret them how you wish. Thanks to Mitchy for this interesting suggestion.
