Powell, is a simple, catchy, and upbeat ragtime piece arranged for solo xylophone and marimba quartet by Ralph Hicks. The xylophone part is characterized by a largely single line melody, with very few double stops, and no rolls shorter than a quarter note. The simplicity of the xylophone part makes it accessible to most beginning to intermediate mallet players and is a perfect introduction to the genre. Funny Folks can also be found in The Golden Age of Ragtime, a compilation of five classic ragtime pieces arranged by Ralph Hicks and Eric Rath!\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eIn addition to the \u003cstrong\u003eprinted score\u003c\/strong\u003e you are receiving downloadable:\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e✅\u003cstrong\u003e Individual Parts\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003e✅\u003cstrong\u003e Full Recording\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003ciframe width=\"100%\" height=\"300\" src=\"https:\/\/w.soundcloud.com\/player\/?url=https%3A\/\/api.soundcloud.com\/tracks\/579749823\u0026amp;color=%23ff5500\u0026amp;auto_play=false\u0026amp;hide_related=false\u0026amp;show_comments=true\u0026amp;show_user=true\u0026amp;show_reposts=false\u0026amp;show_teaser=true\u0026amp;visual=true\"\u003e\u003c\/iframe\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cdiv style=\"font-size: 10px; color: #cccccc; line-break: anywhere; word-break: normal; overflow: hidden; white-space: nowrap; text-overflow: ellipsis; font-family: Interstate,Lucida Grande,Lucida Sans Unicode,Lucida Sans,Garuda,Verdana,Tahoma,sans-serif; font-weight: 100;\"\u003e\n\u003ca href=\"https:\/\/soundcloud.com\/tapspacepublications\" title=\"Tapspace\" style=\"color: #cccccc; text-decoration: none;\" target=\"_blank\"\u003e\u003c\/a\u003e · \u003ca href=\"https:\/\/soundcloud.com\/tapspacepublications\/funny-folks-wc-powell-arr-ralph-hicks\" title=\"Funny Folks (W.C.
