Who would have thought that the ragtime was to undergo such a renaissance! But more than 50 years after the death of its main representative Scott Joplin the film 'The Sting' made this once popular music style known and popular again. This small selection of Joplin rags is not complete without 'The Entertainer'. No less catchy and joyful to play are, in comparison, 'The Easy Winners', 'The Strenuous Life' and 'Rag-Time Dance', especially if the latter is not just played but also accompanied by stamping feet. Fantastic music for entertainment on many occasions! |
