ReelAbilities Houston will present a screening of Left Alone Rhapsody as part of ReelFilm. At 25, Leonard Bernstein’s protégé, John Bayless, debuted at Carnegie Hall, launching a 30-year-long recording career as a solo pianist, composer, and improviser. At 54, after a left-brain stroke immobilized his right side, John is determined to reinvent himself as a one-handed musician and storyteller.
A talkback with Bayless, moderated by Dr. Cindy Ivanhoe, will take place after the screening.
