Joplinesque This song was created as part of the 50/90 Challenge. I decided to see what would happen if I had Band-in-a-Box help me write a piano rag in the style of Scott Joplin. I used Melodist style 191 ("Scott Joplin - sustained") to generate a song in E♭ with an AABA structure and "acoustic piano" for the instrument. It sounded good but incomplete, so I saved this version of the song, transposed it into the key of A♭, and generated a new melody, leaving the chords intact. I saved this as version two. Then I opened up Logic Pro, imported the two songs, and used some creative cutting and splicing to mash up the two songs. This is the result. I hope you like it. Key=Eb/Ab , Tempo 140 4 bar intro, 32 bar chorus, from bar 5 to bar 36. Repeat x1 chorus Style is JOPLIN.STY Style MIDI Instruments are : Bright Piano (2 - changed to "Steinway Grand Piano" in Logic Pro), Tuba (59 - removed in mix)

This is a great little tune and you used BiaB magically...my mind immediately sees the scene a of a Charlie Chaplin film playing out in the background...you captured an era and titled it so well...great job!

Nicely done indeed ! Great job, a little longer would even be nicer.
https://soundcloud.com/user-646279677BiaB 2024 Windows For me there’s no better place in the band than to have one leg in the harmony world and the other in the percussive. Thank you Paul Tutmarc and Leo Fender.

Love that little tune! Sounds great! Being a Beatle fan, it reminds me of something McCartney would put in one his fun little pieces found on most of their albums! Thanks, Torrey

This is a really creative use of BIAB. Very SJ. It certainly belongs in a 20s bar, I'd love to hear the whole band coming in afterwards.

Hit it on the money. Nice little tune. The feel I got from it reminded me a little of "The Entertainer." Very nice.

Short but sweet. Very nice approach.
The Joplin Melodist surely is one of the best MIDI styles in BIAB.

Thank you to everyone who took the time to listen to and comment on Joplinesque. I'm glad you enjoyed it! I decided to see if I could create something longer and closer in format to Joplin's work. Here's what I came up with: The Aurora Rag
