Review by The San Francisco Chronicle
"Ragtime and opera joined hands and danced together in the most joyous fashion at Stern Grove on Sunday afternoon, with a vigorous and utterly charming performance of Scott Joplin's "Treemonisha"...the score, superbly led by conductor Rick Benjamin, is a resourceful marvel....For this performance Benjamin...unveiled his new arrangement of "Treemonisha" for the 11-piece Paragon Ragtime Orchestra. That lithe, pungent blend of strings, woodwinds and brass...gave the performance a lively grace that helped fill the sunny meadow to perfection."
