"What a sense of rhythm this man had and what timing. As examples can serve the classics 'On a Clear Day' and 'Soft Winds' and the way in which Peterson leads the rhythm here."
Nieuwe Noten, 25-1-2023Legendary pianist and composer Oscar Peterson led a storied career, spanning over half a century with new creative heights at every turn. 1971 saw Peterson touring the world once again, joined by bassist Niels-Henning Ørsted Pedersen and drummer Louis Hayes. As heard in this never-before-released live recording from Zurich, Switzerland, the collaboration and artistry between these musicians is unmatched. This band only performed together in 1971 and this is the only other recorded album featuring all three musicians, except for a studio album entitled Great Connection.
What a sense of rhythm this man had and what timing. As examples can serve the classics 'On a Clear Day' and 'Soft Winds' and the way in which Peterson leads the rhythm here.
Nieuwe Noten, 25-1-2023
A breathtakingly beautiful album that is a welcome addition to the maestro's already impressive discography and that unerringly demonstrates how much we miss the 'Maharaja of the piano'.
