Broken Record Rag [Alf:00-36159]

This solo offers the appeal of ragtime without the inherent difficulties found in this style. The syncopated melody has both melodic and rhythmic repetition (mimicking the sound of a broken record), making it easy to play and learn. The left-hand accompaniment eliminates the trademark jump base and features single notes that fall within the hand span. This ragtime experience will be fun for both the performer and the audience.
