    Trebor Tichenor 1940 - 2014

    Home » Jazz News » Obituary

    Trebor Tichenor, the St. Louis native who became internationally known as a ragtime pianist and historian, has died. He was 74. An obituary in Tuesday's Post-Dispatch says he died Saturday at Laclede Groves in Webster Groves after having suffered a stroke in December.

    As pianist for the St. Louis Ragtimers, Tichenor (pictured) was a regular performer on St. Louis stages and at ragtime and traditional jazz festivals across the country for five decades. He accumulated what was said to be one of the world's largest collections of ragtime, totaling more than 10,000 piano rolls and pieces of sheet music.

    Tichenor also wrote a noted book, Rags and Ragtime, on the history of ragtime; composed a series of original rags that were published in three folios; and for many years hosted radio programs and taught college classes about the music he loved. To paraphrase the title of an article former Post-Dispatch music critic James Wierzbicki wrote about Tichenor for Ragtimer magazine in 1978, he “lived, breathed and collected ragtime music."

    The Post-Dispatch obit, linked above, has a good overview of Tichenor's life and career, and there are more details at Tichenor's Wikipedia page. Tichenor di

    This is a core articleon which I wrote a book with at least 20 times the information and copious illustrations, going through the history of the first ragtime revival of the 1950s.This version will give you the basic information, but I encourage you to add the 260 page book to your library if you enjoy books on ragtime and both music and recording history. It was encouraged and informed by many of my supporters and ppers, including ragtime angel and original organizer of the Scott Joplin International Ragtime Festival, Larry Melton, and one of the figures profiled within, my late friend Max Morath. Other contributors of knowledge along the way have included Terry Waldo, Bob Milnethe late Michael Montgomery, the late David Alan Jasen, and my late friend Trebor Tichenor. Starting at the end of the ragtime era of the late 1910s, this chronicles the near-death and new life for ragtime music over the next three decades, and the beginning of the traditional jazz and ragtime movement of the 1940s. There is a great amount of detail
