If you were like me and had short patience, you would have left the video at the beginning. But if you're also as dumb as me, you'd remember that you can't go back a page if you opened it in a new window. The good news is that you'd have listened to some good music by not leaving. I apologize for my short patience but this music is great.

Wow, such a great ragtime - and the fact that the sheets are available for free makes it even better. Keep up the great work, impressive!

Incredible song! I love ragtime, songs that are unique, and still manage to sound good. Definitely all 3.

[JJCraft]

Nicely done! I am trying to make my own ragtime themed song, and this supplied much of my inspiration!

This reminds me a lot of 12th street rag: the way that the whole song uses one key progression and a melody that's based off of one scale. I think in this case it's the blues scale. The melody sounds nice and, yes, there are minor changes in the notes, but I think it would sound better if there were more breaks from the main melody or different parts altogether. As it stands the whole piece gives the same feeling and never builds up to much except in the introduction. Take 12th street rag for example, the main melody is broken up at set intervals to provide a sort of 'response' to the 'call' of the main melody. This makes the song more interesting and adds variety. In your song, I would have added a breakdown at 1:05 since at this point the main melody has been established. In the breakdown, the left land would become soft and staccato. Then the right hand would would play some new melody in a lower octave to provide some contrast. It may not work but I'm just throwing out ideas. Overall it's a great song. I can't wait to see other compositions you post. If you find these tips useful I'll be extremely glad.

Here's a link to Aaron Robinson's rendition of 12th street rag if you haven't heard it before.

This song makes me feel like I’m at a great gatsby party, in 1920’s😆 definitely one of my all time favorites🙏🏼

[Therenaissancemanchild]

It's stuff like this that makes ragtime a genre. Amazing job.

This is so cool! Feels like a BBEG theme in a kid's tv show

[emilski]

I actually liked it so much that i looped it and started playing it in the background all the time 😂Great work

[Seneca]

Absolutely love this. My skills at piano are still far away from being able to do this, but keeps me going to think that maybe someday....
Meanwhile, I watch this every now and then.
