Charles Mokotoff Plays Morning’s Rag by Assad

American guitarist Charles Mokotoff introduces and performs Morning’s Rag the third movement from Children’s Cradle (1992) by Sergio Assad (b.1952). This comes via Mokotoff’s Youtube channel. Cute little work in the style of a Joplin rag with great rhythmic feel and articulations by Mokotoff. I don’t think the sheet music is readily available (although I did see it floating around on the web) but they seem like nice effective pieces and sit well on the guitar.
