The Sedalia Ragtime Orchestra, led by Fifty and Better instructor Cary Ginell, consists of local musicians who are devoted to presenting the authentic music of the ragtime era. Some play music professionally, but most do it for the love of performing. The group includes teachers, retirees, and business professionals from a variety of fields.

The cost to attend this special performance is $10 per person, and tickets must be purchased in advance on our website. Ticket sales will close on Thursday, April 24 at 3pm. All community members are welcome! Directions and parking details will be sent to registrants the week before.

A companion lecture on the Ragtime era will take place on Wednesday, April 2. Visit the Fifty and Better website for details.

The Fifty and Better (FAB) program was designed for people 50 years of age and older, seeking intellectual stimulation through university-level courses — without the pressure of grades — for the sake of learning and social engagement.
