Celebrating James P. Johnson Father of Harlem Stride piano & African-American composer
Johnson was a major force in creating
Stride piano and a composer of American popular standards. He
conceived a broader palette for jazz, composing music far ahead of his
time.
Special guests, actor and jazz fan Peter Coyote, and Mark Borowsky of the James P. Johnson Foundation help to bring this musical genius to life.
