[Dixielandjazz] Horns on rags

[Marcel Joly]

To my big surprise no one mentioned yet the New Orleans Ragtime 
Orchestra (with Bill Russell on the violin), probably the most authentic 
approach to how rags were played by full bands in old New Orleans. They 
used the scores by John Robichaux, contemporary of Buddy Bolden. Some of 
their recordings are on CD on Arhoolie and GHB. In my opinion they are 
much closer to the original sound than all the bands that were mentioned!
