Customer Reviews:
A One song that makes the whole album precious.......2001-11-28
Peterson's "Love Ballad" alone makes it worthwhile to purchase this album. A precious contrast to the energetic, uplifting tone of the rest of the tracks. Great as usual, but even better because it's LIVE.
A beautiful album.......2000-12-03
This album is absolutely beautiful. It is so hard to believe that he has any diminished use of his left hand. Ok, so I am not a jazz expert by any means, maybe a more experienced jazz listener can tell, but as far as I am concerned, I love this album, I love Oscars piano playing. He is the best of the best, a true legend. His music is so accessible and enjoyable, how can anyone fail to be touched by the beauty of his songs. Especially the wonderful 'Hymn to Freedom'. He is a top-knotch composer too, 7 of the 8 songs on this album are his. What a talent! Highly recommended.
Magnificent.......2000-02-17
This cd is not as good as his live performance at the Salle pleyel which is what I recommend is a better buy; however, this cd has some songs that are again, incredibly beautiful. Songs like "when summer comes" and "love ballade" are so lovely, you can only listen. Also "hymn to freedom" is a powerful upbeat gospel type jazz song which I consider one of his bests. If you like Oscar Peteson, I would recommend this cd most definitely. These songs are too beautiful for me to describe with words. You can only listen.
Mellow and delightful.......1999-03-15
I am relatively new to Oscar Peterson and to jazz in general, but I'm very glad I got this CD. It is a mellow, delightful performance. If I have one complaint about some Peterson recordings is that he grunts along as he plays and, in some recordings, that can be a distraction. This recording was done in such a way that Peterson's vocalized communication with his muse is way in the background and that let's me savor the music.
