  1. "The Entertainer" is a 1902 #classicPianoRag written by #ScottJoplin. It was sold first as sheet music by #JohnStarkAndSon of #SaintLouisMissouri, and in the 1910s as #pianoRolls that would play on #playerPianos. The first recording was by #blues and #ragtime musicians "the #BlueBoys" in 1928, played on #mandolin and #guitar. As one of the classics of the ragtime genre, it returned to international prominence as part of the style revival in the 1970s.

  2. Pianist/composer Buck Evans comments "uptempo 1914 version of Joplin's GLADIOLUS RAG as played in the actual era of it's composition, totally free of wine and cheese influences--as 'popular dance music' (what a concept!!!!)"

  5. I'm looking at purchasing #Ragtime #music CDs and the only pianists playing #ScottJoplin that I liked were Richard Zimmerman and Joshua Rifkin. I'll probably go with the former.

  7. In Part #2 of my look at the music genre known as Jazz, I am going back in time to find some of the pre-existing historical & musical elements that allow Jazz to naturally evolve into the art form that it did. To do so, I am highlighting Ragtime & composer Scott Joplin and his Maple Leaf Rag.

  9. @rachelcholst @americana ... and on my fourth day on Mastodon, I discovered there are things called groups, thanks to @rachelcholst creating one...
    Have to go now, but will browse more later, looking for #oldtime #stringband #mandolin #clawhammer #banjo and not finding a lot. #blues may be too ambiguous; #piedmontblues and #deltablues perhaps lost in #FolkMusic
    #ukulele and #Irishmusic appear healthy
    #Scottishmusic not so much...
