Doctorow Ragtime is a novel by E. Doctorow, published in 1975. This work of historical fiction is mainly set in the New York City area from 1902 until 1912, with brief scenes towards the end describing the United States' entry into World War I in 1917.

Set in the volatile melting pot of turn-of-the-century New York, Ragtime weaves together three distinctly American tales -- that of a stifled upper-class wife, a determined Jewish immigrant and a daring young Harlem musician -- united by their courage, compassion and belief in the promise of the future. Set to a glorious, Tony Award-winning score with a Tony-winning book based on the classic E. Doctorow novel, Ragtime features a 28-piece orchestra and a vibrant cast of 40.

We’ve talked about a lot of musical genres that have their origins in Europe, so today I wanted to switch gears and talk about a genre that has its origin in America – ragtime music. Another reason I was itching to talk about ragtime is that it’s a piano genre, which is obviously what I like to highlight on this channel. Ragtime music (“ragged”, or syncopated), originated in the southern USA at the end of the 19 th Century (late 1800s). It enjoyed about 25 years of popularity, until the jazz genre took over around 1920. Today we’re going to talk about what ragtime music is, its origins and precursors, and the main composers of ragtime music – with a few listening examples. What is Ragtime music?

Okay, so what exactly is ragtime music? Ragtime music originated on the piano. They music is fast and syncopated (“ragged”), with the right hand doing all the crazy rhythms and the left hand played steadily. In ragtime, the left hand usually plays a bass note on beat 1 and 3, with a chord on beat 2 and 4. Ragtime harmonic patterns are fairly simple, doing a lot of tonic-dominant movement. For example, if you were in the key of C, you would be playing mainly C and G chords.

Unlike some jazz, the way ragtime music was written on the page was exactly how it should be played – without embellishment or modification. It has that in common with and music.

Ragtime is also very technically demanding to play – if you’ve attempted to play Joplin’s Maple Leaf Rag, you will understand. The idea was to play with machine-like precision.

Where did ragtime originate? Though ragtime music spread across America, its central hub was Missouri. There’s an annual Scott Joplin Ragtime Festival in Sedalia, Missouri, because Joplin lived and taught there for a while (in addition to living in St. Louis, Missouri).

If you haven’t heard of Scott Joplin yet, we’ll be talking about him soon, since he’s the most famous name of ragtime. Louis was a popular center for ragtime – since it’s located in central USA, it was a hub for travelers of all kinds, and as a piano player you could make a living there. You wouldn’t be rolling in the dough, perhaps, but you’d make enough to get. Precursors of ragtime music But since music is an ever-evolving beast, with one genre leading into the next, what forms inspired the creation of Ragtime? -banjo playing (playing the piano like you would play the banjo) -syncopated styles like the cakewalk (predecessor) -fiddle music/dances from the British Isles, like jigs Ragtime was a transient genre. It was popular before recorded music became available, meaning it was mainly distributed via sheet music – and you’d hear it performed at bars and clubs.

It had this in common with Classical music. But the sound of ragtime was evolving away from the Classical sound, and could be seen as a precursor to jazz. With jazz, the musical landscape changed even further in the advent of musical recordings.

Main ragtime music composers When we talk about influential composers of ragtime music, we have to talk about “the big three”. These are three men who we could call the greats of ragtime.

They were: Scott Joplin Joseph Lamb James Scott These were composers who enjoyed popularity and wrote high-level ragtime music (not cheap imitation ragtime). Scott Joplin So let’s talk about Scott Joplin. He was an African-American songwriter and piano player, born in 1867 in Texas. He grew up as a railway laborer, but he was lucky to have a musical family and good teachers, because he was able to travel around the south as a musician after deciding that hard physical labor wasn’t his cup of tea.
