Written in 1902, "The Strenuous Life" is a delightful ragtime piece. The ironically named piece is upbeat and thoroughly enjoyable to play. It lends itself to the wind quintet genre very well. I think you will find that this piece is as enjoyable to play as it is to hear.

Scott Joplin wurde vermutlich 1867 oder 1868 in Texas geboren, er war der Sohn eines ehemaligen Sklaven. Mit 7 Jahren bekam er Klavierunterricht bei Julius Weiss, 15 trat er bereits als Bar-Pianist in Texas und in Lousiana auf. Und 1893 trat er sogar bei der Weltausstellung in Chicago auf.
Die meisten seiner Kompositionen entstanden nach 1895, die er zunächst für seine Gruppe "The Texas Medley Quartett" komponierte.
Scott Joplin gehört neben James Scott und Joseph Lamb zu den "Big Three" des klassischen Ragtimes. Joplin komponierte über 80 Ragtimes.
Joplin's Ragtimes sind sehr, sehr schwer zu spielen, denn sie wurden häufig für die Klavierrolle arrangiert und editiert. Die Edition Emma hat sich deshalb entschieden, von einigen der Joplin's Ragtimes nach und nach vier Versionen unterschiedlicher Spielschwierigkeit zu editieren:
- very easy version
- easy version
- light version
- master version.
