《The Entertainer》是一首经典的钢琴 ragtime，由Scott Joplin于1902年创作。作为ragtime音乐的经典之一，它在1970年代的 ragtime复兴中再次受到国际关注，成为1973年奥斯卡获奖电影《刺激》的主题音乐。美国唱片业协会将其列为“世纪之歌”排行榜的第10位。 2012年向新梅老师将其改编为古筝三重奏。

“The Entertainer” is a classic piano ragtime piece composed by Scott Joplin in 1902. As one of the iconic works in ragtime music, it regained international prominence during the 1970s ragtime revival and was prominently featured as the theme music in the 1973 Oscar-winning film “The Sting”. The Recording Industry Association of America even ranked it 10^th on its list of “Songs of the Century”. In 2012, it was adapted into a guzheng（Chinese zither） trio by Prof. Cynthia Hsiang.
