The Golden Piano

The Piano Maker said the Golden Piano's songs & music were "Her Stories" - the stories of Ragtime Maple's family and the families of her Jazz Quartet and their ancestors. "Her Stories" also include music of the history of the Golden Archers and their families' stories. All told, 100 million years of musical history.

"See," Ragtime pointed at her middle name "Golden." "I'm ALSO a Golden Girl, and now, no one can ever say otherwise." The Golden Girl folded her arms across her chest and refused to move from her seat on the piano bench.

The following evening, a female jazz singer named Aubergine joined Ragtime, Harp and Oboe at the Golden Piano for a night of ragtime, remembrance and razzmatazz.

Ragtime might have been a golden tailed mermaid in another life, but her rehearsal music brought back memories of a distant past.

Ragtime heard freedom smelled sweet. She didn't know where, but she knew she heard it somewhere, from someone. Ragtime also believed freedom tasted sweet, sounded sweet and felt sweet. Ragtime worked at the Golden Piano. A classy restaurant & bar with a piano lounge in the Golden Quarter of the Phoenix Hotel & Casino on the outskirts of the Las Vegas Desert.
