Aaron J. Rabushka:

....wonders what would've happened had ragtime fallen into the hands of 
Tchaikovsky (bigoted as he was) or Dvorak...

And Les chimes in:

Oh, I dunno - I've always felt Dvorak did toss a little rag into the New World 
Symphony -- that secondary tune in the exposition of the first movement could 
have been a quick Joplin syncopated two-step!

Best,

Les
