Ragtime music from the time of Scott Joplin will be echoing around the Quaker Meeting House in Edinburgh this Thursday.
The Meeting House, at 7 Victoria Terrace, has again been ‘Venue 40’ during the 2012 Edinburgh Fringe Festival. The Scottish Ragtime Orchestra, who perform on Thursday 23 August, are one of many groups who have made use of it during the event.
Performers this year have included kilted guitarists, a drama group from Syracuse University, the Newbury Youth Theatre, a Baroque music group from the University of York, the Paper Crane Puppet Company and one of the longest established Gaelic choirs in Scotland, who will perform on Monday 27 August.
