Gum Leaf Rag

Gum Leaf Rag was inspired by the Ragtime music of the legendary Scott Joplin. Featuring the characteristic oom- pah bass and accompaniment along with the mandatory "jaunty" syncopated melody, Gum Leaf Rag will not only appeal to performers and audience alike but test the young band's ability to play in a light, precise manner.
