Uno de mis rags favoritos, me encanta porque es como una versión de Maple Leaf Rag más clásica, incluso tiene los mismos acordes jeje! Aunque algo en que se diferencia principalmente es en su melodía, aún si trata de imitar a la de Maple Leaf, sobre todo diría que su melodía se vuelve muy propia a partir de la sección C. La verdad, aprender a tocar Gladiolus fue algo que me encantó, hasta la fecha no paro de tocarla diariamente jaja. Recuerdo que una vez se la toqué a mis abuelos y dijeron que era una de las piezas más bonitas que habían escuchado. Qué bonita pieza caray!!
¡Este también es uno de mis trapos favoritos! Creo que es una de las obras más sofisticadas y completas de Joplin, si no verdaderamente LA indicada, jaja. La melodía por sí sola es un fuerte contendiente. 🏆✨ Música simplemente increíble para no tocar. ¡Estoy seguro de que incluso tus abuelos estarían de acuerdo! 😆
I wish I could answer that question yet in all honesty, I am not entirely sure why it's marked as a Trio in the first place. Most sources I've come across & individuals I've spoken to seem to label it as a Trio instead of C under the idea that the section itself follows more so as a transitional/"rest period" in the piece before regrouping instead of being a complete section itself. I truly think it could go just fine as a C section or a Trio, I would figure that both labels work just fine in this case. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
The trio originally comes from a European dance form called Minuet and trio. The trio section was originally scored for only three instruments. As composers continued to innovate the structure during the 18th century, the trio section was no longer for three instruments and generally many instruments played during both sections, even if the instrumentation was different. However, the name stuck. One thing which they kept was that the trio section is usually in a different key than the first part. The trio as the contrasting section continued through to the development of american march music, and eventually ragtime. You'll notice the key changes when the trio starts.
I'd recommend listening to the 1914 recording from the Pathe Dance Orchestra: ua-cam.com/video/IhBCCQtz6fU/v-deo.htmlsi=zoc0SQvcYY1DWsS7 It is one of the few Joplin song recordings from Joplin's lifetime.
A mighty fine recording I'd say, discovered it last year when I was just scrolling about online, intresting to see how different groups performed his music back then. 😌

Just curious, why is the C section called the trio? Thanks
