I have realized in the last decade how my love of simple beautiful piano jazz comes directly from Johnny Costa and his work here. I wish I could find this on vinyl for anything I could afford, but until then they reissued it on CD and digitally here if you want to buy it.

“The Music of Mister Rogers' Neighborhood”—Sweetwater, 20 November 2019

Sweetwater's Jacob Dupre shares his tribute to the music of Mister Rogers' Neighborhood and explains why Fred Rogers deserves recognition among legendary composers like George Gershwin and Cole Porter.It just blows my mind they scored the episodes live.
