Take Me to the Ragtime Dance

The Peacherine Ragtime Society Orchestra's fifth album sparkles with the group's signature zest and impeccable musicianship. Performing from original period arrangements, the PRSO balances favorite showpieces like "King Chanticleer" and "Dizzy Fingers" with classic rags like "Maple Leaf Rag" and "The Ragtime Dance," World War I flag-wavers like "Over There" and "Good-bye Broadway, Hello France!," obscurities like "It's All Your Fault," and sophisticated piano solos from director Andrew Greene. The album also includes guest performances by pianist Adam Swanson and vocals by audience favorites William Edwards and Karen Vincent. Take Me to the Ragtime Dance is a dynamic, exciting musical variety show that demonstrates the full range of a ragtime-era theatre orchestra, recorded with exquisite clarity and served up in your choice of digital download or 180-gram audiophile vinyl LP.
