paragraph_text: Ragtime -- also spelled rag - time or rag time -- is a musical style that enjoyed its peak popularity between 1895 and 1918. Its cardinal trait is its syncopated, or ``ragged '', rhythm. The style has its origins in African - American communities in cities such as St. Louis. Ernest Hogan (1865 -- 1909) was a pioneer of ragtime and was the first composer to have his ragtime pieces (or`` rags'') published as sheet music, beginning with the song ``LA Pas Ma LA, ''published in 1895. Hogan has also been credited for coining the term ragtime. The term is actually derived from his hometown`` Shake Rag'' in Bowling Green, Kentucky. Ben Harney, another Kentucky native, has often been credited for introducing the music to the mainstream public. His first ragtime composition, ``You've Been a Good Old Wagon But You Done Broke Down '', helped popularize the style. The composition was published in 1895, a few months after Ernest Hogan's`` LA Pas Ma LA.'' Ragtime was also a modification of the march style popularized by John Philip Sousa, with additional polyrhythms coming from African music. Ragtime composer Scott Joplin (ca. 1868 -- 1917) became famous through the publication of the ``Maple Leaf Rag ''(1899) and a string of ragtime hits such as`` The Entertainer'' (1902), although he was later forgotten by all but a small, dedicated community of ragtime aficionados until the major ragtime revival in the early 1970s. For at least 12 years after its publication, ``Maple Leaf Rag ''heavily influenced subsequent ragtime composers with its melody lines, harmonic progressions or metric patterns.
