As a newcomer, I have to ask, why is it called classic banjo when it could be called ragtime banjo?

There are thousands and thousands of pieces composed or arranged for classic banjo.

"Ragtime" would be a genre inside of classic banjo, the same as marches, schottisches, polkas, jigs, reels, hornpipes, waltzes, mazurkas, cakewalks, foxtrots, song and dances, characteristic pieces, intermezzos, novelty.

Ragtime is a part of classic banjo, but just one part.

Gotcha! Thanks, Joel!
