When I first started doing my program for elementary school age children, "From Ragtime to Rock & Roll", my idea was to introduce kids to some types of music they might not be familiar with: folk, old time, blues and jazz. I also wanted to show kids how the rock & roll and country music they listen to today is rooted in the European melodies and African rhythms of our country's ancestry. This recording covers music common among American people from 1750 to 1950; from the African slave ships and European immigration to the Civil War to the Great Depression to the birth of rock & roll. I have also included songs from There's a Rhythm to it All, a program I created with my husband, chiropractor-percussionist Dr. Joe Dockery, which explores music and rhythm in the world around us and in our bodies.
