This most popular Scott Joplin Rag, "The Entertainer" reached high acclaim in 1973 as the most recognizable theme from Paul Newman & Robert Redford's movie classic, "The Sting". This Academy Award-Winning film was solely responsible for the resurgence of ragtime piano in general, but more specifically brought renewed interest in the works of Scott Joplin. "The Entertainer" was actually part of every TOP 40 music radio broadcast in the mid 70's and included with every "Billboard" countdown. We have brought it back to life with this great arrangement for Bb, Eb & C instruments. An endless interaction between the pianist and horns as the melody is flipped on each repeated passage. Joplin's Entertainer for Alto Sax & Piano is arranged by Tony Santorella and edited by Steve Kenyon. This fun filled Santorella Publication is sure to draw a crowd. Each solo edition for Bb, Eb & C instruments is written in accommodating keys, therefore can also be played as an ensemble.

I was looking for the right equipment for my Camac Isolde Celtic harp. I did NOT want to install the Dusty Strings pick-ups- seemed like way too much to add. This little gizmo was easy to install with the little pictures on placement- like, less than five minutes easy. I plugged the pickup into my new Roland Mobile Cube and it’s perfect! I don’t hear any sound distortion, and I think this will be just right when playing background music for noisier environments. Super happy with this!

I was excited to receive this kit. I do have several banjos already; however, I did not have a mountain banjo. I have built gourd banjos and ekontings (I went to Gambia in 2004 and 2007 to learn how to play and make them) from scratch, so I am not a beginner in terms of making instruments. I had a lot of fun putting the kit together. I do have a few observations regarding tips or slight modifications in the instruction manual, if interested.
Thanks!

I am very happy with the quality of the instrument. I am of Puerto Rican decent and it reminds me of my childhood, watching the musicians and learning to play myself. It is a beautiful guiro and sounds amazing.

It's great to be able to buy a hurdy gurdy in the US without having to wait for 6 months to a year or more. The Aplo is a quality entry level instrument that produces beautiful sound. It resonates very well and there are no buzzes or squeaks. Workmanship is very good. I got mine cottoned, rosined and tuned in a half hour. The transaction was easy and it arrived within a week.
I've been able to play some tunes on it with only a few hours of practice. It's going to be a lot of fun.

I love it, the entonation is really very good (sorry for my bat english).
Regards!
