Moscow Ragtime Band

Active since: 1996

Moscow Ragtime Band is the highest caliber example of a traditional jazz ensemble specializing in that one and only, hot and energetic music born in New Orleans at the dawn of the 20th century. The band, which originated in the capital of Russia, is dedicated to the music that was so perfectly described on the very first jazz recording as “a sufficient power and penetration to inject new life into a mummy, and keep ordinary human dancers on their feet till breakfast time.” The Moscow Ragtime Band not only plays the sounds and rhythms which were the world’s craze in the “roaring twenties”, they live the music that continues to make people happy for over 100 years
