Song title: "Shreveport Stomp," composed by Jelly Roll Morton.

Morten Gunnar Larsen is from Oslo, Norway and is a pianist extraordinaire as well as the leader and founder of the world famous Ophelia Orchestra.

This was one of the many concerts held in the beautifully restored (in 2008) and historic Missouri Theatre Center for the Arts during the Annual Blind Boone Ragtime & Early Jazz Festival that began on June 4th, 2006 in Columbia, Missouri. It was great!

I hope you can attend this spectacular festival next year!

Larsen is an extraordinary piano player. I had the pleasure and honor to meet him when "Jelly Roll" was being played in off-Broadway on 1995.

This is an awesome recording of Shreveport Stomp (by Jelly Roll Morton). Maybe the best recording--besides Morton himself. Wonderful. Thanks for posting!
