H. Watkins, Sr.<\/p>\n<p><font size=\"2\" style=\"font-family:verdana; font-size:13px\" face=\"Verdana, Helvetica\">Oscar Peterson is one of the greatest pianists in the history of Jazz. From his early days as Montreal&#8217;s teenage boogie-woogie sensation through his meteoric rise to international celebrity, Peterson has wowed audiences far and wide with his mastery of the ivorys. <em>Music in the Key of Oscar<\/em> chronicles this journey for you through a combination of TV and video clips and commentary from friends, family and the legendary Mr. Peterson himself. <\/p>\n<p>There&#8217;s also a great reunion performance of the Oscar Peterson Trio (bassist <strong>Ray Brown<\/strong> and guitarist <strong>Herb Ellis<\/strong>) who after a twenty-year hiatus, reunited in order to &#8220;prove that it still had the magic.&#8221; All in all there is over 100 minutes of classic and contemporary performances, rare film footage and in-depth interviews with a cast of jazz legends and multiple Bonus Features. I&#8217;m an Oscar Peterson fan and even I learned a lot that I did not know about Oscar Peterson&#8230; he way quite a pioneer in the jazz industry in Canada.<\/p>\n<p>This is highly recommended viewing both for it&#8217;s historical content as well as the sheer pleasure of the performances.
