About Solace

Not a rag but rather a slow drag

Although Joplin uses the same musical form in "Solace" that is so familiar in his rags, " Solace" is not a rag but rather a slow drag, which differs in tempo and mood. Even in the faster rags Joplin warns the performer against playing too fast; this is all the more important in a slow-drag.
