- Notes: Sean Fleming and his Ragtime Orchestra Perform Classic Ragtime Join Sean Fleming and his 8-piece Dam’ Rag Scottas Orchestra as they perform classic Ragtime from the early 20th century on Sunday, September 8, 2019 at 3:00pm. Pieces by Confrey, Hayden, Joplin, Lamb, Morton, Scott, and Shepherd will be featured. The concert will feature several works from the “Red Back Book”, a collection of Ragtime arrangements published in the early 1900’s. Upbeat favorites such as Joplin’s “The Entertainer”, “Maple Leaf Rag”, and “The Easy Winners” will be mixed with slower pieces such as Lamb’s “Ragtime Nightingale” and Joplin’s “Solace”. The piano solo “Jelly Roll Blues”, an early jazz piece, will be played, as well as the novelty piano piece “Dizzy Fingers”, which is played as fast as the title would indicate. This concert is sure to be a favorite for people of all ages! Come and help usher in the start of the fall season in the beautiful First Congregational Church of Searsport, nestled in the heart of Searsport just off of Rt. 1.
