All to often, challenging pieces of music can sound like technical exercise, be dull to play and put your audience to sleep. Ragtime music, on the other hand, is full hooks, skips and runs that are fun to play and entertaining to hear. Just playing these tunes around the house, I’ve noticed how people react to ragtime tunes. They’ll wander into the room, start grinning and doing a little comedy-dance routine, or they’ll burst into the room and say, “That’s that one off that film. I like that one. Play it again.”

There’s something about ragtime music that makes people smile. There’s no wonder that it became the most popular music of its day, has had repeated revivals and remains popular today.

These arrangements are challenging. It’s only fair to warn you, they’re not suitable for beginners.
