Where to start?

Hi Raymond,

I'd love to see what you have. You can contact me by mail - my mail address can be found here: http://www.ragsrag.com/about/about.html.

On this page you can also find the web address to three guys who convert piano rolls to MIDI and provide them for free on the Internet. No other people provide these files for free, as far as I know. Btw they have much more than ragtime - also popular music and classical music and some jazz too. But you know that already of course.

Kind regards

Ragnar

Wonderful. You did what I also did, collecting MIDI files (pianorolls,etc...) of old ragtime music, Scott Joplin's stuff, Art Tatum, and others. If you are interested, I can post them on the Box.com, the MIDI versions and the rendered versions. I searched the Internet for the guys who made these things, but after several years since download I cannot find them anymore to give them the credits they deserve.

Let me know,

Raymond

You are a great help. Finally I've found one of those guys: Warren Trachtman. His contribution of all those MIDI files is really astonishing. I am working on it, in other words I am uploading all my stuff to Box.Com. Will take a while. I don't have the original scores. Worked my way from MIDI to WAVE and MP3, found some errors in a couple of them, corrected those and voila..... my contribution to your priceless historical website. I will notify you when it is ready to download.

Raymond - also an older man......

Sure, but not as old as I am. I see from your profile that I'm 16 days older than you!

So last monday another 68-er. A bit late, but happy birthday and remember 1944 was a very good year.
