Maple Leaf Rag

Treće izdanje omota za "Maple Leaf Rag".

"Maple Leaf Rag") je rana ragtime kompozicija za klavir koju je napisao američki kompozitor Scott Joplin. Predstavljala je jedan od Joplinovih ranih radova, a kasnije i jedna od najpoznatijih ragtime kompozicija svih vremena, postavši prva instrumentalna kompozicija koja se prodala u preko milion štampanih partitura.

Godine 1916. Joplin je dao snimiti Maple Leaf Rag na klavirskoj roli zajedno s drugim znamenitim ragtime kompozicijama - Something Doing, Magnetic Rag, Ole Miss Rag, Weeping Willow i Pleasant Moments - Ragtime Waltz.

Kompoziciju je Joplin napisao 1897. u počast Maple Leaf Cluba, društvenog kluba za crnce u gradu Sedalia u državi Missouri. Godine 1899. ju je izdao te je postala veliki hit.
