Music for Johnny Johnson

Album by Kurt Weill & The Otaré Pit Band & Joel Cohen

Music for Johnny Johnson is the incidental music composed by Kurt Weill for the play Johnny Johnson, first performed in 1936. The score combines Broadway and jazz-inflected popular styles with elements of European art music, reflecting Weill's early American period after his emigration from Germany and marking a departure from his earlier Weimar-era cabaret work.
