Daughters of Dahomey by Harry P. Guy (1902)

Original listing and sheet music here: https://musescore.com/user/36482158/s... "Oriental Ragtime Waltz". One of two ragtime waltzes written by Harry P. Guy (1870-1950), the other being the very well-known "Echoes from the Snowball Club". Harry was a talented musician, composer and band organizer who settled in Detroit and was very active in the Detroit music scene for years and a founding member of Fred S. Stone's Black Musicians Union. The Daughters of Dahomey were a renowned all-female military regiment of the Kingdom of Dahomey, present-day Benin in Africa, that existed from the 17th to the late 19th century, famed for their ferocity and military prowess. (An "oriental" piece in those days meant "exotic" or from a faraway land, without specifying where necessarily.) This excellent composition was published by Harry P. Guy in Detroit in 1902.
