This is an interesting composition coming as it does on the tail end of ragtime. It's very much in the style of some early 1920s jazz and the final part morphs into pure blues. The score and midi are in the library..Steve.
Pretty cool rag. I do like how it evolves but still keeps a bit of rag going throughout.
One of the things I enjoy about your exploration of ragtime is that I tend to go find each one out on the 'net. Whether I find it or not, I always seem to run across another one (or several) that piques my interest.
This time I found "Tom-Boy (Rag Two Step) by W.F. Bradford. What a delightful Rag!
Hi Marc, I like Tom-Boy and it's now in my to do folder. Keystone is a bit tricky in parts so listening to the midi get the syncopation into your head might be a good idea...Steve.
