My performance of Scott Joplin's Maple Leaf Rag debuted on August 10th, the same day in 1899 that Joplin signed his historic publishing contract with John Stark for a one-cent royalty on all sales of his composition. Maple Leaf Rag was the first piece of instrumental sheet music to sell more than 1 million copies. As a result of Maple Leaf Rag's popularity, Joplin became known as the "King of Ragtime."
