An original rag by Marc Moore (me), written in 2022. Links to sheet music and midi files below.
A simple rag that tries more for a catchy melody than anything particularly intricate. Took me a while to come up with a name for this one- wanted to do something inspired by the "rise bang bang bang bang" motif, but didn't want it to be too violent. And so, whackamole came to mind. I originally wasn't too happy with this rag, but it's starting to grow on me #ragtime #ragtimepiano
