[78-L] Ragging (later, Jazzing) the Classics

[DanKj]

 While Julius Lenzberg's 1913 "Hungarian Rag" uses pieces of Liszt's H.R.#2,  S.R.Henry's "Under the Rambling Roses" is 
Schubert's Moment Musical No.3 in its entirety, syncopated and with some 'raggy' effects thrown in (and another melody 
tacked on, after 1:12).  (Hear it:  http://cylinders.library.ucsb.edu/mp3s/9000/9345/cusb-cyl9345d.mp3  ... I was just 
playing my copy on a Columbia Q!)

 Are there earlier examples of this genre (I guess it's a 'genre') ?
