"Weeping Willow" is a 1903 classic piano ragtime composition by Scott Joplin.
The "B" section makes good use of alternating patterns creating interesting melodic shifts.
The Trio ("C" section) is in the key of C major; its chord progression was popular in black folk songs, and was used in Eddie Miller's Tain't Nobody's Bizness If I Do.
Joplin's recent scuffle with John Stillwell Stark over the publication of The Ragtime Dance created a level of animosity between composer and publisher.
Weeping Willow became the second of many pieces published by a firm other than Stark's since Maple Leaf Rag.
