Ragtime is an American musical genre, enjoying its peak popularity around the years 1900–1918. Ragtime is a dance form written in 2/4 or 4/4 time, with bass notes played on the odd-numbered beats and chords played on the even-numbered beats. Many ragtime pieces contain four distinct themes. Ragtime music is syncopated, with rhythmic accents on the weak beats.The etymology of the word ragtime is not known with certainty. Many believe the origination to be from the words "ragged time" referencing the characteristic syncopations which "tear up" the then normal accentuations of previous popular music. Another theory suggests these words to be associated with the walking bass set against the melodic line. Another thought is that this type of music was used in saloon bars where prostitutes were not available, as they were 'on the rag'.//Ragtime originated in African American musical communities, in the late 19th century, and descended from the jigs and marches played by all-black bands common in all Northern cities with black populations (van der Merwe 1989, p.63). By the start of the 20th century it became widely popular throughout North America and was listened and danced to, performed, and written by people of many different subcultures. A distinctly American musical style, ragtime may be considered a synthesis of African-American syncopation and European classical music, though this description is oversimplified.Some early piano rags are entitled marches, and "jig" and "rag" were used interchangeably in the mid 1890s (ibid.) and ragtime was also preceded by its close relative the Cakewalk. However, the emergence of mature ragtime is usually dated to 1897, the year in which several important early rags were published. In 1899 Scott Joplin's Maple Leaf Rag was published, which became a great hit and demonstrated more depth and sophistication than earlier ragtime. Ragtime was one of the main influences on the early development of jazz (along with the blues). Some artists, like Jelly Roll Morton, were present and performed both ragtime and jazz styles during the period the two genres overlapped. Jazz largely surpassed ragtime in mainstream popularity in the early 1920s, although ragtime compositions continue to be written up to the present, and periodic revivals of popular interest in ragtime occurred in the 1950s and the 1970s

Ragtime Revival to Play Broadway
Two month ago, I made a point of trekking out to Washington, DC to catch the Kennedy Center's new production of "Ragtime," While not on such a grand scale as the original Broadway production, it was still a pretty massive production and well worth the four-hour journey. I couldn't imagine it transferring to Broadway. But it is. I can't believe it. The confirmation finally came today. Marcia ...
