The live experience
What reaches the room
Alexander's Ragtime Band is a name rooted in the early 20th century musical movement that reshaped American popular music. The original song, written by Irving Berlin and published in 1911, reportedly came together in minutes in a bustling Tin Pan Alley office. Emma Carus helped propel it into the public imagination in spring 1911, and a Collins & Harlan phonograph recording kept the tune in the public ear for ten weeks, igniting a ragtime revival that catapulted Berlin into the pantheon of great American songwriters.
