As a pianists who loves playing ragtime: what are some good books to read up on about ragtime history, performance practice, and composers?
Also, as a saxophonist: could you tell me a little about the saxophone's place in this music? Do you ever include the instrument in your ensemble?
Also, it is so awesome what you're doing! I would love to see your ensemble perform if they came anywhere near where I live!

Cool! I'll have to check some of those out. I'm in a saxophone quartet and we're trying to play a ragtime piece this semester.
I live in Texas. I'm actually from pretty close to Joplin's birthplace. Go to school in Louisiana. Sounds like you're group hasn't made it this far south yet, but we'd love to have you down here. Maybe at the New Orleans Jazz fest in late April early May?? Just a thought. I try to make it every year I can. I'll keep checkin' your schedule, man! Great work!
