John Partridge, music director of the Wine Country Ragtime Festival, will discuss Lamb’s life and work illustrating his talk with live performances of some of Lamb’s greatest compositions. Other unusual works included Celestine Waltzes and Lilliputian's Bazaar.

He was a young man from New Jersey who fell in love with the music of Scott Joplin and began writing rags of his own sometime around 1900.
