More Candy

"MORE CANDY" is a digital recording of American popular music of the 1880s through the 1910s as performed by today's foremost interpreters of this era - the Paragon Ragtime Orchestra. The music is played from the actual original orchestrations (i.e. orchesta sheet music), using antique instruments and authentic period playing styles. The disc features 26 selections - most not available on record since the age of the Victrola. Included as well are a number of world premiers, including the original versions of George Gershwin's "Swanee" (1919) and Jelly Roll Morton's own 1915 "Jelly Roll Blues" (reputedly the first-ever jazz orchestration). "MORE CANDY" was recorded with the latest in high-definition digital technology in the famous 1857 Mechanic's Hall in Worcester, MA. It is without doubt one of the Paragon Ragtime Orchestra's best recordings.
