| Link of the week:Maple Leaf Rag (Paris, France - 1902). Composed by the "King of Ragtime" Scott Joplin, this tune was unfairly associated with Jim Crow racism. In fact, Ragtime heavily influenced what became Swing, Lindy, and may popular dance styles that continue to inspire all of us. This week Misi and Rebecca will introduce a nice couples dance that fits well with the music. |
