Encompassing nearly three hundred extant compositions and arrangements, this volume addresses a significant gap in musicological scholarship by presenting the surviving works of Johnson's prolific and varied output in their entirety. The stellar reputation of Johnson and his band led to tours in Canada, England, and much of the United States, as well as performances at prominent national events—such as presidential inaugurations, the centenary of George Washington's birth, and the Marquis de Lafayette's vaunted 1824 return to the United States. By assembling his complete surviving works, this edition offers an indispensable resource for performers, scholars, and students, facilitating renewed engagement with Johnson's contributions to the musical and cultural history of both Black Americans and the United States as a whole.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003c\/div\u003e \u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"A-R Editions","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":43834023182415,"sku":"A098","price":994.5,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0900\/1828\/files\/6c3226756fbfe7e9c45c6c371c799467.jpg?v=1764008300"},{"product_id":"arise-and-shine-hal-leonard","title":"Arise and Shine","description":"\u003cul\u003e \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eComposers\u003c\/strong\u003e: \u003ca href=\"\/es\/collections\/florence-price\"\u003eFlorence Price (1887-1953)\u003c\/a\u003e, \u003ca href=\"\/es\/collections\/dave-ragland\"\u003eDave Ragland\u003c\/a\u003e, Innocent Okechukwu, \u003ca href=\"\/es\/collections\/francis-frank-johnson\"\u003eFrancis \"Frank\" Johnson (1792-1844)\u003c\/a\u003e, \u003ca href=\"\/es\/collections\/oswald-russell\"\u003eOswald Russell (1933-)\u003c\/a\u003e, \u003ca href=\"\/es\/collections\/kevin-day\"\u003eKevin Day (1996-)\u003c\/a\u003e, Irene Britton Smith (1907-1999), \u003ca href=\"\/es\/collections\/ulysses-kay\"\u003eUlysses Kay (1917-1995)\u003c\/a\u003e, Artina McCain, \u003ca href=\"\/es\/collections\/samuel-coleridge-taylor\"\u003eSamuel Coleridge-Taylor (1875-1912)\u003c\/a\u003e, Leah Claiborne, \u003ca href=\"\/es\/collections\/nora-holt\"\u003eNora Holt (1885-1974)\u003c\/a\u003e, \u003ca href=\"\/es\/collections\/hale-smith\"\u003eHale Smith (1925-2009)\u003c\/a\u003e, \u003ca href=\"\/es\/collections\/valerie-capers\"\u003eValerie Capers (1935-)\u003c\/a\u003e, \u003ca href=\"\/es\/collections\/zenobia-powell-perry\"\u003eZenobia Powell Perry (1908-2004)\u003c\/a\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eEditor\u003c\/strong\u003e: Leah Claiborne\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003e \u003cstrong\u003eInstrumentation (this edition)\u003c\/strong\u003e: \u003cspan class=\"edition-instrumentation\"\u003ePiano\u003c\/span\u003e \u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong class=\"original-instrumentation-title\"\u003eOriginally for\u003c\/strong\u003e: \u003cspan class=\"original-instrumentation\"\u003ePiano\u003c\/span\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli class=\"binding hidden\"\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBinding\u003c\/strong\u003e: \u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eISBN\u003c\/strong\u003e: \u003cspan class=\"book-barcode\"\u003e9798350169072\u003c\/span\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSize\u003c\/strong\u003e: \u003cspan class=\"book-width\"\u003e9.0\u003c\/span\u003e x \u003cspan class=\"book-length\"\u003e12.0\u003c\/span\u003e inches\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli class=\"book-pages\"\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePages\u003c\/strong\u003e: 64\u003c\/li\u003e \u003c\/ul\u003e \u003cdiv class=\"row\"\u003e \u003c\/div\u003e \u003c!-- split --\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"row\"\u003e \u003cdiv class=\"one-half columns\"\u003e \u003ch4\u003eDescription\u003c\/h4\u003e \u003cdiv class=\"feature_divider\"\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e \u003cp\u003eThe \u003cem\u003eArise and Shine\u003c\/em\u003e piano collection presents a luminous tapestry of piano works by Black composers, designed to awaken the imagination of the performer while honoring a legacy too often overlooked.
