  • Was there anything that did not become the title to a rag, ha!

  • If there is, I'll fill the void! Heheh! For this one, I was thinking of the title of Joe Lamb's "Bird-Brain Rag", and I had recently watched a blue jay splashing in a puddle, so I chose "Bird-Bath Rag" -- and put in appropriate "bird calls" and turns for the bird effects.

  • Beautiful music. I luvit!

    See ya in Sacramento?

  • Of course I'll be at Sacramento again this year. Got the Sutter Creek Ragtime Festival coming up next month first...

  • Ron, watching this again, I must say that it is a high compliment for you, the composer, to think highly enough of my performance of your music to post it here. Thank you.

  • Aw c'mon, Andrew; you're great! I love the extra harmonies and stuff you put in. I had several comments from the audience members after that set too. And since I can't play it myself, I rely on the "professionals" like you, so to me it's a high compliment that you like to play my music!

  • Loved it! Tell Mr. Barrett that that was an excellent performance! :-)

  • Tell you what Jaime... I don't personally own a video camera, but next chance I have (which may be a few months), I will borrow my uncle's and tape myself playing "Rebellious Rag" and somehow get it onto Youtube.

  • Click on my name; there's a link to my MIDI files web site. It has a link to send email to me. Just make sure it has "Ragtime" in the subject line so I notice it amid all the junk mail I get.

  • Thanks Ron! The problem is that I have not finished my theory, it's until Grade 5 (and I know very very little about cadences and chord patterns) and my practical is until Grade 7 but surprisingly I could play Ragtime well although not all of the Novelties written by Zez Confrey or Billy Mayerl or Lew Pollack. Can I possibly have your e-mail address Ron?
