Scott Joplin (24. november 1868 – 1. april 1917) var en amerikansk komponist og pianist. Joplin må nok først og fremmest betegnes som den vigtigste ragtime-komponist. Han fik sit store gennembrud med Maple Leaf Rag i 1899, der blev efterfulgt af mange andre. Han forsøgte sig også som operakomponist med bl.a. Treemonisha i 1911, men havde fiasko.
Joplins musik og ragtime i det hele taget fik en overvældende renæssance i 1974, da The Entertainer blev anvendt i filmen The Sting (Sidste stik).
 | Maple Leaf Rag Scott Joplin spiller Maple Leaf Rag i 1916, en af de sjældne indspilninger med ham. Den viser også hans svigtende helbreds indvirkning på hans klaverspil. Er der problemer med lyden? Se da eventuelt Hjælp:Ogg Vorbis eller "Media help" (engelsk) |
