Ragtime
From HitStory, the pop encyclopedia of School of Rock · Genre
Ragtime was the first African American style of music to be sold on a large scale as sheet music. The left hand plays a march bass, the right hand syncopations against the beat, and the form consists of strains of sixteen bars. Scott Joplin's Maple Leaf Rag was published in Sedalia, Missouri, in 1899.
Listening
Listening tip. Listen for the difference between the steady march bass in the left hand and the syncopations in the right hand.
