Dedicated to Tom Brier!
Thanks to Cameron Lee Simpson for doing edits for me like adding pedaling and dynamics.
I've been wanting to write a classic rag so here's my attempt at one. I know, I know, some parts of the 2nd strain and most of trio sound like they don't belong but I thought it sounded cool XD.
SORRY IF THE PEDALING IN THE TRIO IS TOO MUCH. I ADDED THOSE IN AND DO NOT PLAY PIANO PROFESSIONALLY!!!!!!

Very rose leaf rag-esque in that second strain

[@SquidzYT]

I can see where you're getting it from! But in terms of Joplin themes I feel like it bears a closer resemblance to Elite Syncopations.

[@deadbydebt6859]

@@SquidzYTtheme wise perhaps but that arpeggiated left hand that differs from the typical ragtime formula is quite reminiscent of Rose Leaf and possibly also the second strain of The Nonpareil which also has a similar theme

"Elite Syncopations" as in high class ragtime?😀
