Qui aurait pensé que ragtime jouirait d'un autre renaissance ! Mais plus de 50 ans après la mort de son principal représentant, Scott Joplin, le film 'The Sting' a rendu ce style une fois populaire bien connus et à la mode à nouveau. Cette petite sélection des chiffons Joplin n'est évidemment pas complete sans ' The Entertainer '. En comparaison, ' Faciles vainqueurs ' et ' Rag-temps danse ' ne sont aucun moins amusant à jouer, surtout que dans ce dernier cas, l'interprète a non seulement à jouer, mais aussi stomp son pied. Excellente musique divertissement pour les nombreuses occasions ! / Violoncelle Et Piano

Who would have thought that ragtime would enjoy another renaissance! But more than 50 years after the death of its main representative Scott Joplin the film 'The Sting' has made this once popular style well-known and fashionable again.

In comparison 'Easy Winners' and 'Rag-Time Dance' are no less fun to play particularly since in the latter the performer not only has to play but also stomp his foot.
