Originating within African-American communities in the late 19th century, ragtime grew into a distinctly American form of popular music and could be heard everywhere from brothels and bars to house parties and juke joints. Enjoy the music of Scott Joplin, Jelly Roll Morton, and more, and get ready to party like it's 1899!
