An early sheet music publication from the African American musical Bandanna Land the 1908 stage production starring the celebrated comedy team Bert Williams and George Walker two of the most influential Black performers in American theater at the turn of the twentieth century.

Robinson Stella Wiley and Dan Michael. <br /> <br /> The music was written collaboratively by two major African American composers of the ragtime era. Will Marion Cook 1869â€“1944 a classically trained violinist and composer who studied at the Oberlin Conservatory and later in Berlin was one of the most important musical figures in early Black musical theater. He worked closely with Williams and Walker on several productions and helped develop a distinctive style that blended ragtime rhythms with elements of operetta and popular song. Co-composer Chris Smith 1879â€“1949 best known for the widely popular dance song â€œBallinâ€™ the Jackâ€ was another prominent Black songwriter associated with early twentieth-century musical theater and vaudeville. The lyrics were written by Alex Rogers 1876â€“1930 one of the most prolific African American lyricists of the period and a frequent collaborator with Cook.
