Khám phá sheet piano của R. G. Gradi trên Zen Virtual Piano. R. G. Gradi is an Italian variation on the Irish name of the composer Richard Grady, and Grady used it largely for classically oriented parlor pieces. Grady was born in Newport, Rhode Island, to British stone mason Michael O'Grady and Ellen Barrett. In 1900 Grady was boarding in a Connecticut school for boys in New Haven. The O'Grady family name and the Italian variation Gradi may point to one name taking more than one form. Grady's first known song, Don't Tell Lies, appeared around 1908, written with New York composer Bessie Boniel. His first syncopated instrumental, Pin Cushion Rag, followed a year later. He wrote one rag in 1911 and two more in 1912. A fairly popular number, That Devilish Glide, was written with Haven Gillespie. A song around 1908 and rags in 1911 and 1912 may suggest Grady's writing spread over several years. Ten Teddy Bear pieces, Musical Echoes from Teddy Bear Land, count among his better-known works, and they suited piano students in third or fourth grade. Grady's two most popular rags emerged in 1913: Happy Rag and the still commonly found Old Swanee Rag. Christmas Chimes is the last known Grady piece and one of many chimes or bell pieces he had composed. The Teddy Bear set for young pianists and the many chimes or bell pieces may suggest a body of work built from themed pieces. By 1917 the Grady family had moved to Ohio, and on his 1918 draft record Richard was living in Dayton and working as a stock keeper for a local engineering lab company. By 1932 the family had relocated south to Columbus, Ohio, where Richard was director of the Richard G. Grady School of Music through at least 1934. Richard Grady died in Columbus in early 1944 at age 59. A stock keeper's job in 1918 and a school of music by 1932 may hint at a working life that held both non-musical work and music teaching.
