SUMMARY:Aaron Jonah Lewis's Ragtime Banjo Revival
DESCRIPTION:Aaron Jonah Lewis’s Ragtime Banjo Revival thrills and delights audiences with fresh arrangements of classic\, novelty\, and British ragtime pieces for cello\, banjo and guitar\, plus blues and early jazz fiddle music\, centering the contributions and influence of Black American composers. The group creates a relaxed and enlivening space to experience popular music of the past and to connect with a greater sense of our shared cultural history. With a curious and optimistic spirit\, Ragtime Banjo Revival educates and inspires\, welcoming the newcomer and cultivating respect across the lines of difference.  \nRagtime banjo is rooted in African-American music that was appropriated for minstrel shows and which mingled with other popular styles of European and distinctly American origin. It can be played with conservatory precision or with the raw energy of a street band. The selections and arrangements of Ragtime Banjo Revival founder Aaron Jonah Lewis aim at the intersection of these modes\, balancing elegance and abandon\, dignity and freedom\, and fostering the unique dynamic of feeling that thrives there. Aaron is joined by cellist King Sophia and guitarist Alex Belhaj.
