Jason Mendelson: Patricia 'Peppermint Patty' Reichardt
Quotes
-
Patricia 'Peppermint Patty' Reichardt : The spiritual would now give way to something called gospel. Work songs would slowly become something called the blues. The Black parade music of New Orleans would slowly become something called jazz. And the dances and walk-arounds of the plantation would transform into what we call ragtime. In 1899, Scott Joplin's "Maple Leaf Rag" would sell an astounding one million copies of sheet music.
