"ragtime" -"creole Music" Compact Disc Scott Kirby/frank French 1997 New Orleans For Sale
’s“Recordings” Category does not subdivide into
helpful sub-categories, as it does for sheet music, so I post Ragtime and Jazz Recordings as well as sheet music on this site
SCOTT KIRBY & FRANK FRENCH: "CREOLE MUSIC" CD I have listed this excellent CD under "Ragtime." Why the quotes? These two pianists arebothknown as superb Ragtime pianists, with many albums to their credit, solo or duo, and there's plenty of Ragtime on this disc. But the repertory here transcends a limited rag agenda. As the pianists state in their excellent notes, the collection "...reflects the living legacy of folk and art music...in the New World...works from the United States, Cuba, Haiti and Puerto Rico...with the intention of attaining a unique melange of classic and popular styles." Selections include works by Louis Moreau Gottschalk and Jelly Roll Morton, plus those ofArthur Duroseau & Othello Bayard (Haitian,) Jose Quinton (Puerto Rican,) and original compositions by Kirby, French, and the American Hal Isbitz which brilliantly reflect these influences.
The CD was released in 1997on the custom Viridiana label based in New Orleans. The copy offered is in like-new condition.
