Summary
[edit]| Description |
Download and print in PDF or MIDI free sheet music for Piano (Solo). According to Bill Edwards, this composition should be, at least in part, attributed to San Francisco pianist Sid Le Protti. The perfessor states: "In 1915 during a visit to Sherman & Clay, Sid heard his tune played again by a friend who was asking him if it was familiar. It was, but this time it was part of an instrumental tune named Canadian Capers. Evidently Compton had played it back in Chicago at the repeated request (with the lure of dollar tips) of pianist Henry Cohen, and Cohen collaborated with three of his friends to compose the piece Canadian Capers around it, including Le Protti's melody in the B strain. It became a substantial hit in short order, enough to eventually warrant a song version... Sadly Le Protti had no copyright or other proof to protect him and benefit from the tune's hit status, but even when asked if he wanted an agreement, he demurred, saying 'Just be careful next time.'" (With thanks to JohnJ1995 for this info and link): http://ragpiano.com/comps/leprotti.shtml Originally released in Chicago in 1915 by Roger Graham, "Canadian Capers" didn't fully catch on until Jerome Remick in New York City published it in 1921. It became immediately popular as a recording piece, recorded in 1921 by Paul Whiteman's orchestra and then by many others. This is the 1921 edition. |
