About

Original listing and sheet music here: https://musescore.com/user/36482158/scores/22857211?from=youtube_share Arthur E. Henrich (1878-1954) was a musician and professional piano tuner who published four pieces including this cakewalk two-step which might be his finest work. He was originally from New Vernon, Indiana and traveled a lot, later settling in California. This score was self-published in New Vernon, Indiana in 1901; his three other scores were published in Nashville, Tennessee.

Original score source was from Baylor University Frances G. Spencer Collection of American Popular Music at this link: https://digitalcollections-baylor.quartexcollections.com/Documents/Detail/dixie-flyer-cake-walk-and-two-step/2098522 This is a reproduction of the original score.
