An oral history interview with Felix Jackson / recording and transcript
- "Jackson's reminiscences cover the era from the mid-1920's to the early 1940's, and the activities of prominent German artists. He gives considerable attention to Kurt Weill and Bertolt Brecht (primarily as separate artists) and to his own libretto for Weill, from which he recalls an aria. He admires the German director Erich Engel at some length. He discusses the original production of Die Dreigroschenoper (1928), the German reception of jazz in the 1920's and the changes it caused in German music, and the German emigré community in the 1940's in the U.S."
