Review:
Ragtime music usually means sharps and flats and tricky rhythms, but this setting of the original work by Joseph F. Lamb is surprisingly accessible. "Moderate Rag Tempo" with a light texture and manageable syncopations makes this a good step-up challenge for choirs that ring a predominantly level 3/3+ repertoire. 133 "cork-popping" measures!
