Description
Strictly speaking Ragtime was a formalized solo piano style, but many of the pieces were orchestrated by the publishers for dances etc. My original piece in the traditional ragtime style, 'Macintosh Rag', is presented as part solo, part orchestrated in a reasonably authentic imitation of the original style. It starts with solo piano and then alternates with the orchestra.
Incidentally, in case anyone starts muttering about trade marks, this rag is in honour of Charles Macintosh (1766-1843), the inventor of waterproof fabrics.

Really really nice! You have found your way right into the core of the style. If someone told me this was authentic stuff I wouldn't have doubted for a second!
And I'm glad to see that MidiOrleans has already found his way here, because I directly assiciated to him when I heard this .. (otherwise I would have sent him a note :-)
Really really nice!
From a great rag time digger!
