Adam Swanson: "On A Circular Staircase" Rivermont BSW-2209
Released August 5, 2008
Adam Swanson is rapidly becoming known as one of the world's foremost performers and historians of American piano ragtime. Although he is only sixteen years old, he has been a featured performer at dozens of ragtime and jazz festivals across the United States and abroad. In 2007 he appeared alongside John Arpin at the Bohem Ragtime and Jazz Festival in the Republic of Hungary. In May 2008, he became the youngest ever to win the World Championship Old-Time Piano Playing Contest held in Peoria, Illinois. Rivermont is pleased to offer this exciting program of ragtime piano solos--including the debut of Arthur Marshall's "The Pea Pickler"--brilliantly performed by an especially talented young pianist. Features an introduction by Johnny Maddox. 51 minutes.
