The new form of entertainment that helped to popularize ragtime and jazz in the early 1900s was the radio. With the advent of radio broadcasting, these musical genres reached a wider audience, allowing people to listen to and enjoy them in their homes. Although opera was popular during this time, it did not have the same impact on the spread of ragtime and jazz as radio did.
The name ragtime came from the syncopated, or "ragged" rhythms that occur in ragtime music.
Ragtime MUSIC. :)
Ragtime - I - was created in 1960.
Ragtime is a style of music characterized by a syncopated melodic line and regularly accented accompaniment. It was evolved over time by African American musicians.
A "rag" is short for "ragtime," which in turn was short for "ragged time," because the syncopation characteristic of ragtime sounded "ragged" to listeners in those days.

Scott Joplin was a prominent figure in the late 19th and early 20th centuries, primarily associated with the genre of ragtime music. His most active years were during the 1890s to the early 1910s, a time when ragtime was gaining popularity in the United States. Joplin's compositions, such as "Maple Leaf Rag" and "The Entertainer," played a crucial role in defining this musical style. Thus, his music period can be characterized as the ragtime era, within the broader context of the late Romantic period in classical music.
