Question: Fig Leaf Rag by Scott Joplin is separated into six sections up until the 02:37 mark. Within these sections there are repetitions of each section.

Fig Leaf Rag" by Scott Joplin is separated into six sections up until the 02:37 mark. Within these sections there are repetitions of each section. The piece starts with a six second introduction (00:00- 00:06) that provides a lead up the first section. The first section or "section A" starts at 00:07 and ends at 00:36. The next section of the piece starts at 00:37 and then ends at 01:06 and this is just a repeat of the first section, so this section is also labeled "A". Following this section is a new portion of the song which is "section B". this one starts at 01:07 and finishes at 01:36, and just like section A this section repeats itself meaning that there is another "section B" which starts at 01:37 and ends at 02:06. The final portion of this song before the 2:37 mark is another repeat of "section A" and this one starts at 02:07 and it ends at 02:37. Overall, this first half of the song is separated into six sections labeled AABBA
