Dear Mr. Zick -
I was
pleased that there was a notice regarding William Appling’s Scott Joplin
recordings on your blogspot last year when they were released: http://africlassical.blogspot.com/2017/04/scott-joplin-complete-rags-waltzes.html
I was the producer of these recordings and was very gratified at the
positive response to their release. The main web pages for the
recording are here at www.williamappling.org.
I’m
also thinking it would be nice if the recordings could also be listed
as part of the Scott Joplin discography on the web page here: http://chevalierdesaintgeorges.homestead.com/Joplin.html
Currently
I am working to raise awareness that November 24th will mark the
celebration of Scott Joplin’s 150th birthday. I’m hoping there will be a
good deal of activity surrounding this important event. I feel
Joplin’s sesquicentennial should be celebrated far and wide, though
particularly in New York City where he lived the last ten years of his
life.
Thank you for your excellent work!
Sincerely,
Bill McClelland
