  "lineage": "Virtuoso solo piano genre of the early 1920s that succeeded ragtime, written largely for the piano-roll and sheet-music trade; Zez Confrey's 'Kitten on the Keys' (1921) launched it, followed by his 'Dizzy Fingers' and pieces by Roy Bargy and others. Showy pieces at strict, bright tempos use syncopated three-note figures running across the bar, parallel fourths, whole-tone and chromatic runs and harmonic colours borrowed from impressionism, played with crisp, mechanical precision.",
