| | Ragtime - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia |
 | | Ragtime music was also distributed via piano rolls for player pianos. | | | Ragtime music is syncopated, with rhythmic accents on the weak beats. | | | Occasionally ragtime was originally scored for ensembles (particlularly dance bands and brass bands), or as songs. |

| | Ragtime Piano, Musical Origins |
| | Ragtime songs had their origins in coon songs and as they gradually lost their racial character, any song of a strong rhythmic style began to be referred to as a ragtime song. | | | Ragtime is most commonly thought of as exclusively a piano form that reached its greatest popularity between 1897 and World War I. However, at the time, the ragtime label was also attached to other instrumental music, songs and dance music. | | | Ragtime's roots are in minstrel-show plantation songs, cakewalks, banjo playing, and black folk music; it also drew on, and recast in fresh ways, the chromatic harmonies of 19th century European music. |

| | mfiles - other music genres: Ragtime and Cakewalk music and composers |
| | Ragtime sprung up as a music form towards the end of the 19th century, and this was one of a number of forms which had their roots in this time period. | | | Ragtime was an influence on songwriters of the day, who wrote songs called rags although they were only loosely based on the conventions of genuine ragtime. | | | There was something of a revival of the fortunes of ragtime music when Marvin Hamlisch used Joplin's music extensively in the soundtrack to the movie The Sting, including the main theme The Entertainer and Solace. |

| | The movie is not about music, but the sound track uses ragtime to great effect in evoking moods and setting a nostalgic tone. | | | Not only was ragtime itself one of the first widely popular styles of music that actually developed in the U.S., but it also played a major part in the development of a style that has been called "America's music": jazz. | | | This is the practice of ragging an existing piece of music. |

| | The Ragtime Story |
| | Raised in a musical family, Joplin was familiar with this musical heritage. | | | Rhythms which were part of a musical heritage brought from Africa were incorporated into cakewalks, 'coon songs, and the music of ``jig bands'' which eventually developed into ragtime. | | | The musical roots of ragtime are tied to plantation life. |

| | Another view is that the music was first played by itinerant bands dressed in ragged clothing and the music was thus identified as "rag music" and subsequently as "ragtime." Another opinion is that Ragtime was actually a dance form, known first as "jig music" and later as "ragtime." | | | Another opinion is that Ragtime developed on the heels of the Cakewalk, and was primarily dance music. | | | Simply stated, Ragtime is a type of music in which a syncopated melody line is played against a straight or routine accompaniment. |
