Hello! 🎉

+gozhn the metronome is the enemy of rag. The style is not meant to be played in strict time, but relatively loosely.

+John Doe Yea that's true, ragtime is a fun, let-loose type of genre!

+gozhn Ragtime is supposed to be played whimsically, and that's exactly how he played!

Drew Hart Whimsically, to a degree, perhaps, but rag also relies heavily on the eighth-note feel (i.e. 2/2 timing.) Here, we find that it ended up with a situation where the melody ends up an eighth note behind the beat, which is a technique used in jazz, not ragtime. the rag style syncopates across the bar line with relatively strict time (though a bit looser, with much less emphasis on the first eighth note of the bar than a march) as opposed to playing behind the beat as we do in jazz which only works because of swing time. (i.e. two eighths = quarter-eighth triplet.) This is why, in this example the bass line appears to get lost after the first several bars, and near the end, I find that I have no idea where he is in the score when reading through it.

+John Doe Interesting. Never thought of it that way.

monkeyman123321 How to be disappointed in FF8 Oo

+Labia Majora's Mask yet Sephiroth was better than 8

***** what i meant to say was; the character Sephiroth is the best part of FF7 specially since his legacy continued in the Kindom Hearts franchise therefore his awsomeness alone is > the game FF8 even if 8 is better than 7.

The last two FF I played many many many years ago were 7 and 8. Both games excellent, but for me there was something about 8 that I enjoyed more, especially the battles.
