The best of James Scott, combined into one piece! James Sylvester Scott (February 12, 1885 – August 30, 1938) was an African-American ragtime composer, regarded as one of the three most important composers of classic ragtime, along with Scott Joplin and Joseph Lamb. He made a lot of influential music and that’s why we feature him several times on this channel along with Scot Joplin and Joseph Lamb. James Sylvester Scott was born in Missouri, USA. At the age of 21 he searched for his idol Scot Joplin in St. Louis, Missouri to ask if he would listen to one of his rag time pieces. Upon hearing the rag, Joplin introduced him to his own publisher, John Stillwell Stark, and recommended he publish the work. Stark published the rag a year later as “Frog Legs Rag“. It quickly became a hit and was second in sales in the Stark catalogue only to that of Joplin's own “Maple Leaf Rag“. Scott became a regular contributor to the Stark catalogue until 1922. Scott's best-known compositions include “Climax Rag“, “Frog Legs Rag“, “Grace and Beauty“, “Ophelia Rag“ and “The Ragtime Oriole“. This composition of James Scott contains the best music he composed.
