Later in 1899, Scott Joplin, an American pianist and composer, released âMaple Leaf Rag,â which turned out to be one of the most influential pieces of the era. His beloved hit brought a bit of sophistication to the ragged rhythm and became memorable; however, that was not to be his only great contribution to music. The well-known King of Ragtime composed 44 ragtime jazz pieces, 2 operas and 1 ballet.
Ragtime â with Joplin's work at the forefront â has been cited as an American equivalent of the minuets of Mozart, the mazurkas of Chopin, or the waltzes of Brahms. Ragtime also influenced classical composers including Erik Satie, Claude Debussy and Igor Stravinsky.
