“Joplin will be
inducted into the Missouri Music Hall of Fame in August.” “Robert
Schulz, president of the Missouri Music Hall of Fame, said he is
pleased about Joplin’s induction into the 2-year-old hall.” “The
Missouri Music Hall of Fame is based in St. Joseph and is a nonprofit
group under the umbrella of the St. Joseph Music Foundation.”
“Joplin’s
induction will be part of the third annual Joestock music festival
Aug. 31 in St. Joseph. Greg Filardo, a St. Joseph-area collector who
was featured on an episode of “American Pickers,” owns piano
rolls that were recorded by Joplin; a player piano will be brought
out to play them during the ceremony.” [Scott Joplin (c.1867-1917) is featured at AfriClassical.com]
