Hi, about a hundred years ago Scott Joplin wrote the Maple Leaf Rag.
Well, he wrote it in 2-4 time, which means there's two quarter notes in every measure.
With the political atmosphere right now where they're trying to cut down on the arts,
I thought, well, maybe I can do my part and I'm going to cut out 12.5% of this song.
There's eight sixteenth notes in every measure, so I decided to remove one and make it 7-16 time.
And maybe that'll help so they don't have to cut down on the arts.
And it goes like this.
1-2-3-4-5-6-7, 1-2-3-4-5-6-7, 1-2-3-4-5-6-7, 1-2-3-4-5-6 [Ab]-7.
