Todd Duncan: A Mighty Voice

Todd and Gladys Duncan seated by piano. Todd Duncan discusses the financial struggles “Porgy and Bess” faced when it first opened. George Gershwin insisted on calling “Porgy and Bess” an opera. People who liked Broadway musicals did not want to see an opera and opera-goers did not think Gershwin could write an opera, leaving “Porgy and Bess” somewhere in between.
