Plenty o' Nuttin'," and "Summertime."
This man abandoned his project of composing an opera based on S. Ansky's play The Dybbuk. He composed a stage work based on a novel by DuBose Heyward. Joseph Vass claims that this man based one tune from that work on the melody of Avinu Malkeinu, although the singer of that song is dismissive of "things that you're liable to read in the Bible." Besides the song "It Ain't Necessarily So," that work by this composer contains the songs "Oh, Doctor Jesus," "I Got Plenty o' Nuttin'," and "Summertime." For 10 points, name this composer of Porgy and Bess.
