Summary

[edit]
Description Ticklish Rag (March & Two Step) by J. P. Traxler 1905 Lorain, Ohio. This finely crafted, highly original folk rag is one of two rare rags (see "Silver Maple") written and published by J. (Joseph) P. Traxler (1866-1926), one of the tuba players of the Lorain City Band. (To this author the melody of the "A" strain sounds like a tuba solo adapted for piano). Although he never took any formal music lessons, Traxler, who also ran a music store in downtown Lorain, Ohio (1905 pop. 25,500), was a musical prodigy who mastered several instruments and became the head of his first small-town orchestra at the age of twelve. Though he lived 21 more years after his two rags were copyrighted (both on the same day), no other compositions have been found.
