I wish more people played ragtime like this!

[theragtimefan]

It just makes me want to just jump up and dance for hours and hours on end!

Nice rag. I like the way the trio keeps the Olympic jumping in check. This effect is due to the avoidance of oom-pah in the trio.

[Squarerig]

Some excellent players still play ragtime a shade too fast,which spoils the effect for it is supposed to be relaxed-or so I have read.But then,paper is patient and one can write anything.This is pure delight from Mr.Brier-what else can we expect from his so capable hands?

[isambo400]

that's like saying I wish more people could fly

[ragtimemax]

I second that, and that more people would write like this too!
