The Marvel of Durango strikes again! The internet is honored once again by this leading light of Ragtime. As for me, I can only say it's better than church and as good as any religious pilgrimage.

Great playing! What is the tune you play around 31:50 called? Is it possible to obtain sheet music for just that tune, and not the whole medley?
It seems to be "It had to be you"
It is a very famous song called "It Had to Be You." You can easily purchase the sheet music online, although it might even be free since it is no longer in copyright.
Thank you for answering! Are you playing exactly as notated, or are you improvising too?
@@runeh. Oh no, it is very much my own arrangement.
@@adamgswanson You should make sheet music from it. It's not often I hear sophisticated arrangements like that...! :-)
