Dear Fellow Ragtimer,  There are a few new things on the Ragtime MIDI
Library Page I thought you might like to know about:

1. A new MIDI sequence of the contemporary rag "Friday Night" by Donald
Ashwander.

2. A new 'contemporary composer' profile of Donald Ashwander.

3. The Ragtime Chat Room has been in scheduled operation for three
weeks now.  Regularly scheduled chats are held every Tuesday night at
7 PM (PST).  Next week's guest will be Ed Berlin, noted author,
researcher and authority on the life of Scott Joplin.  Ed is a virtual
fountain of ragtime historical knowledge.

4. My CD "Syncopated Odyssey" has just received very favorable reviews
by Bill Mitchell in "The Mississippi Rag" and by Nick Taylor in "The
Top Liner Rag".  You can read the reviews on my CD page.  Both
reviewers highly recommend it.  Do you have yours? (hint..hint)  :)

Regards,
John Roache
