Alfred Music Publishing is the world's largest educational music publisher. Alfred produces educational, reference, pop, and performance materials for teachers, students, professionals, and hobbyists spanning every musical instrument, style, and difficulty level. "Rialto Ripples" is George Gershwin's first published instrumental and his only piano rag. It has all the hallmarks of Gershwin's piano style merging ragtime with a piano novelty number. It's fun, it's delightful, it's a toe-tapper, and smile-maker. Jim Lyke's upbeat arrangement for one piano, four hands is a National Federation title. This wonderful rag is accessible to intermediate level pianists but will attract advanced players, too. A great addition to recital and encore lists!
