TROMBONE RAG. American, Novelty Rag. USA; Nebraska, Missouri. C Major {Phillips, Songer}: G Major ("A' and 'B' parts) & C Major ('C' part) {Christeson}. Standard tuning (fiddle). AABB (Phillips): ABC (Christeson). A turn of the 20th century ragtime composition which found its way into the old time repertoire (similar to the process found with another instrument-titled tune, the "Clarinet Polka").
