This Papa John Missali Rag is a syncoped melody with a
Spanish accent, carried by a (lefthand) bass.
I hear this qualities in this new composition. It's real Ragtime!
I was surprised by these properties.
This proves the composition's quality by Maestro J.F. Missali, and played by Alexandre Hage.
I hope this Ragtime added to your collection. It's a great tune.

This is my homage that I composed to my dead father.
When I was young, my father John Missali said to Maestro Tito Martino[clarinet], to teach me the authentic jazz and to Maestro Augusro Cesar de Aguiar [Classic Maestro] to teach me the classic harmony, and composition. Another teacher Maestro and Professor Fausto de Pachoal gave instruction to me. Now, with 67y.o. I know to write and lead a New Orleans band.
I have just written a Classic Sweet to Cornet Bb and Orchestra 21minuts, and other cornets parts.
But my real love is the jazz and the ragtime. This is my second ragtime that I bring to you. A. Hage is begining to compose. He did the 3rd part and Paul Zelders from Circus Square Jazz Band, Holland, send us periodically instrutions for all of my band to play a correct jazz.
Tito Martino [reeds] and Jean Piere Henkart [Trbone] come here and give us a lot of instructions. It's a little history from our jazzmembers. This is The New Orleans Jass Band-Brasil.
Enjoy it my friends.

Does it lie with my PC,but the sound repro. is awful? Although the music and the playing is first-class!
