This podcast features Raymond Bisha in conversation with conductor Kenneth Kiesler about the rediscovery, rescue and reconstruction of two operas by James P. Johnson (1894–1955), De Organizer with a libretto by Langston Hughes, and The Dreamy Kid, with words by Eugene O'Neill. JP Johnson was renowned as an influential jazz pianist but was largely unknown as a composer of opera. It was Johnson’s express hope that two of his short stage works, written in the late 1930s, would one day form a double-Bill. Which they did, but not until they were finally performed in 2006, and released on disc in 2023.
