Did Scott Joplin ever compose for a woodwind quartet?
Thanks

Not that I know of in his original works. There are probably modern arrangements available, which are not PD.

All of Joplin's compositions are either for piano, or voice and piano, outside of the operas Guest of Honor (lost) and Tremonisha (only still exists as a vocal score).
He DID do some ragtime orchestra arrangements (dunno how many, but I know of Maple Lead Rag, and James Scott's Frogs Legs Rag), but I don't believe he did much other non-piano music.
