Piano Solo - Level 4 - SKU: A0.1295718 Composed by Donald Ashwander. Ragtime. Score. 6 pages. The Donald Ashwander Estate #886015. Published by The Donald Ashwander Estate (A0.1295718). Waterloo Rag is a delightful solo piano composition that embodies the creative process of its composer, Donald Ashwander. This lively and spirited ragtime piece was born during a weekend getaway to the English countryside, as Donald embarked on a journey from Waterloo Station. The composition encapsulates the unique fusion of inspiration and happenstance that often characterizes the creative process.Donald Ashwander's adventure began when friends in England invited him for a weekend retreat in the picturesque countryside. Little did he know that this trip would provide the perfect backdrop for the birth of Waterloo Rag. As he made his way to Waterloo Station on that fateful morning, a catchy ragtime tune played in his mind.The journey itself proved to be a source of inspiration. As the train pulled out of Waterloo Station and began to gain speed, the rhythmic click-i-ty-clack of the wheels on the tracks seemed to harmonize with the tune that had been humming in Donald's head. In that serendipitous moment, he quickly jotted down the musical idea in his manuscript book, and the foundation of Waterloo Rag was laid.The composition captures the essence of the train journey itself, with its lively and rhythmic melodies mimicking the motion and energy of the locomotive. The piece seamlessly weaves together the clickety-clack rhythm of the train wheels with the vibrant ragtime style, resulting in a joyful and exhilarating musical experience.The final page of the sheet music contains special program notes by Donald Ashwander.

Piano Solo - Level 4 - SKU: A0.1295715 Composed by Donald Ashwander. Ragtime. Score. 6 pages. The Donald Ashwander Estate #886012. Published by The Donald Ashwander Estate (A0.1295715). Perdido Bay Moon Rag is a heartfelt and evocative solo piano composition dedicated to the memory of an elegant lady whose love for dance and a chance suggestion led to the creation of this beautiful piece. The composition pays homage to the serene beauty and cherished memories of Bear Point, Alabama, a place rich in history and personal significance to the composer, Donald Ashwander.The story behind Perdido Bay Moon Rag begins on a summer day when Donald, along with friends Edith and Edwin Zelnicker, found themselves on the picturesque Bear Point, Alabama. This tranquil peninsula on the shores of Perdido Bay held a special place in their hearts, as it was a locale where they had spent countless hours as children. They reminisced about their youth, playing beneath the majestic magnolia trees adorned with Spanish Moss and exploring ancient Indian mounds in search of pottery shards.It was during this nostalgic conversation that Edith, the elegant lady in question, suggested the title for a piano composition: Perdido Bay Moon Rag. Enchanted by the idea, Donald was determined to bring this vision to life. Upon returning to New York, he began crafting the piece, but it somehow eluded his grasp. Despite this initial challenge, he designed an appropriate cover for the composition and sent it to Edith and Edwin in Mobile.Over the years, Perdido Bay Moon Rag remained a fixture on Edith and Edwin's piano, a symbol of a cherished memory and unfulfilled promise. Edith confessed to her friend that she had attempted to play the piece but found it too complex, and so it remained unplayed.Time passed, and sadly, Edith fell ill. On a poignant visit to Mobile after Edith's passing, the atmosphere in their home was filled with her spirit. There, prominently displayed on the piano, lay Perdido Bay Moon Rag. In that moment, Donald knew that he needed to fulfill his promise and honor Edith's memory properly.With newfound determination and inspiration, Donald embarked on a journey to create a completely new composition that would capture the essence of Bear Point, Perdido Bay, and the moonlit nights they had cherished. This time, the music flowed effortlessly from his fingertips, as if guided by the memories and love he held for his dear friend.Perdido Bay Moon Rag is a testament to the enduring power of memories, friendship, and the creative process. It reflects the tranquility of Bear Point, the gentle sway of Spanish Moss, and the serenity of moonlit nights on the bay. Through its delicate melodies and intricate rhythms, the composition invites listeners to share in the deep emotions and fond recollections that inspired its creation.The final page of the sheet music contains special program notes by Donald Ashwander.

Piano Solo - Level 3 - SKU: A0.1414330 Composed by Donald Ashwander. Ragtime. Score. 8 pages. The Donald Ashwander Estate #996103. Published by The Donald Ashwander Estate (A0.1414330). Donald Ashwander's Peacock Colors invites listeners into a kaleidoscopic world of sound, where the boundaries between genres blur and the palette of emotions shifts like the iridescent hues of a peacock's plumage.In June 1967, Ashwander reflects, I awoke to a wonderful rainy morning. As the coffee dripped, I was filled with the luxurious feeling of having a day completely unscheduled. A perfect day for writing a new rag - the kind of rag that had never before been written. A Blues Rag-Waltz, I thought, that's the ticket! The composition, however, would not stay darkly blue as I had intended. Purples, browns, greens and in-betweens began to creep in. When the piece was complete, it had become an Iridescent Rag-Waltz. Sitting on top of my piano was an Art Nouveau vase filled with peacock feathers.With this anecdote in mind, one can trace the genesis of Peacock Colors. There are moments of playful whimsy, where the music seems to skip and twirl like the feathers of a dancing peacock, as well as passages of introspective reflection, where the harmonies deepen and the melodies take on a more contemplative tone.Ultimately, Peacock Colors is a testament to the power of music to transcend boundaries and capture the imagination. In Donald Ashwander's hands, the piano becomes a canvas, and each note a brushstroke, painting a vivid portrait of a world where waltz and ragtime intertwine in a glorious display of color and emotion.

Piano Solo - Level 4 - SKU: A0.1402417 Composed by Donald Ashwander. Ragtime. Score. 4 pages. The Donald Ashwander Estate #985635. Published by The Donald Ashwander Estate (A0.1402417). Donald Ashwander’s October unfolds like a leisurely stroll through a golden-hued park, its rhythmic cadence mirroring the rhythmic crunch of fallen leaves underfoot. The melody weaves through the keys with a carefree spirit, echoing the joyous abandon of a carefree afternoon spent reveling in the beauty of nature.Yet, within the ebullient notes, there lies a subtle undercurrent – a tinge of sorrow or bittersweet quality that adds depth to the composition. It's as if Ashwander has captured the fleeting nature of the season, where the vibrant colors of fall are a prelude to the quiet introspection of winter. As October unfolds, listeners may find themselves transported to a bygone era, where ragtime rhythms reverberate with the echoes of yesteryears. With each note, feel the cool breeze, hear the rustle of leaves, and sense the boundless joy that permeates this easy-going tune. In the hands of Donald Ashwander, October becomes more than a composition; it becomes a vivid and evocative musical experience, a celebration of the beauty found in the changing seasons of life.

Piano Solo - Level 4 - SKU: A0.1295704 Composed by Donald Ashwander. Ragtime. Score. 6 pages. The Donald Ashwander Estate #886002. Published by The Donald Ashwander Estate (A0.1295704). Empty Porches is a hauntingly beautiful and melancholic piece of ragtime for solo piano. Written by Donald Ashwander in 1983, this composition masterfully combines the syncopated rhythms of ragtime with a deep sense of introspection and nostalgia, creating a unique and evocative musical experience.The inspiration for the piece came when Ashwander returned to the street where he had lived and played as a child, lamenting how no children were out playing anywhere and all you could hear was the steady hum of air conditioners and the flickering lights of the television through sealed windows. The composition’s beauty lies not only in its technical craftsmanship, but also in its ability to touch the heart and soul of the listener. This piece invites us to pause and reflect on the beauty of life's more pensive moments. The final notes of the piece fade away, like memories drifting into the past.The final page of the sheet music contains special program notes by Donald Ashwander.
