Ramona Sidney Baker has been playing ragtime for four years under Virginia Tichenor, but she has been interested in ragtime for many more years than that. She credits her father, noted jazz musician Clint Baker, as the one who first interested her in this addictive music. It started with a few records from the 1900s that had ragtime dance music on them, which Ramona recalls hearing when she was three to four years old. Ramona tries her hardest to dig through the oldest examples of recorded ragtime on cylinders and early disc records, looking for the long-forgotten pianists behind all of the great singers of the period.
