On this episode of *Democracy on Fire*, Kay Brown welcomes renowned pianist, composer, and storyteller John Bayless for an inspiring conversation about music, resilience, spirituality, and overcoming extraordinary challenges.
Bayless built an acclaimed international career before suffering a devastating stroke at age 54. After losing the use of his dominant right side, he found a way back to music—reinventing himself as a one-handed pianist and continuing to perform and share his story of hope and resilience.
Bayless also discusses his spiritual journey, his relationship with Leonard Bernstein, his love of music, and his documentary *Left Alone Rhapsody*, now available to stream on Amazon Prime Video.
