Scott Joplin: King of Ragtime

Ragtime was sensation that overtook the United States at the turn of the 20th century and Scott Joplin was the man responsible for bringing it into the forefront. A classically trained musician, Joplin's lifelong goal was to see ragtime accepted as a serious artform. However, his life was tragically cut short and Joplin never saw many of his dreams fulfilled. Join Dan Lupo, creator of five Minute Mozart, to delve into the details of Joplin's life and enjoy select pieces by the king of ragtime writers.
