I know many people who want to learn to play the piano since they want to play The Entertainer by Scott Joplin. The Entertainer is one of the classics of ragtime, it returned to top international prominence as part of the ragtime revival in the 1970s, when it was used as the theme music for the 1973 Oscar-winning film The Sting.

Now I know you don't wait until you're forty to play this one since it's a really hard tune so I worked hard to create an easier arrangement of the Entertainer and I added a really nice piano sheet to go with it.

It's best to first follow the piano tutorial, first work out the right hand, then the left hand and combine them only at the end.
