available at

OUT OF STOCK! Call for ETA (626) 386-5882.

William Bolcom's Graceful Ghost Rag is sort of an anti-rag; originally written in the 1970s for solo piano, this tune expresses more longing and introspection than the happy-go-lucky style of most ragtime pieces. And there's no solo xylophone!

Stephen Primatic has arranged this underappreciated piece of music for six percussionists on keyboards, and can be played straight or swung depending on your mood and taste.

Difficulty: Medium

Duration: 4:40

Instrumentation:

  • 5.0 Octave Marimba (shared), 4.3 Octave Marimba
  • Vibraphone, Xylophone, Glockenspiel
