About

Scott Joplin’s musical interests were considerably broader than what could be expressed in ragtime – he composed two operas (Treemonisha is considered by many to be his masterpiece), a ballet, and two orchestral works – but he is best remembered today as the ‘King of the Ragtime Writers’, the master of freely syncopated and extraordinarily inventive piano rags. 
 
This second disc of rags includes the whirling, scintillating Stoptime Rag, the nostalgic GladiolusRag, and Joplin’s last ever work for piano, Reflection Rag
 
The first disc (8559114) received an enthusiastic response: “The music is treated with respect and admiration, not simply tossed off like so many notes. … If one has any desire to find a good collection of ragtime music or to further explore the music of Joplin, this would be a good place to start.” MusicWeb
