I did a report on Joplin just this year. Though they didn't have recording technology and equipment way back then like the ones today, there WERE piano scrolls (like an automatic piano uses). He recorded some of his songs on these scrolls just before dying.

May I add something to this? The fact that he died in 1917 does not matter. In the description it says that he was recorded playing on a piano roll. It was the first way to record piano music, and was invented and mass produced in 1896, before he died. If you doubt that, look up piano roll on the internet. You will find that I am right.

I agree! The second movement is VERY difficult due to the constant distance of the left hand having to jump back and forth. I played this song many many times and still struggle with the second movment!

Wow. You have no idea what you are talking about. It was recorded on a pianola roll. The tempo is just fine, actually its exactly correct. The "extra notes" are called embellishments that Scott Joplin added while he played.

This was not him. I don't know the piece too well (I'm just beginning to learn to play it), but considering that he died in 1917, its unlikely this is him.
Regardless, this piece is sweet!
