Some piano rolls of Joplin were found that answered your question: you swing Maple Leaf Rag and play it at an easy tempo. In Joplin's own words, notated in the music, "Not Fast!" You're playing it about twice as fast as intended. Ragtime is dance music, and it really helps to see how people dance to it.
chk. I slowed to .75x
Yeah, this guy is just playing it too fast to even enjoy it
Highly skilled. Glad I found you. You do justice to this wonderful instrument.

Wonderful. His hands look like they're moving in fast motion.
You destroy all of the nerd stereotypes attributed to accordion players! You are a meastro of the squeezebox.
That was great! Do you know where I can get a copy of the sheet music? I love all the Charles Magnante arrangements
Wie viel kostet ein Akkordeon dieses Modells ?
How many bass buttons has that one got?
~180. 120 normal stradella bass + 3 rows of free bass (to play melodies in the left hand)
Niiice! And not exactly simple.
Nice 👍
?? Play it the way Joplin did (there are copies available) LOL
I slowed to .75x Good tho, its one of my favorites of his music.
How
The cadence and beauty of the piece is not appreciated due to the excessive speed of execution, many musicians believe that playing ragtime is to do it at full speed, listen to the old recordings of its author and appreciate the tempo and cadence so peculiar and beautiful that They have those compositions. I definitely don't like it, I'm also an accordionist and I don't like speed competitions.
That's way too fast and as a result not accentuated. It's that old accordion problem - demonstrating technic sacrifying the music.
I agree..... I've played the accordion off and on over 70 years....and I still recall my best instructor (a member of the US Navy band) telling me "slower is better"
