    Heartbreaking. Oscar was 80 years old in 2005 and this must have been one of the last concerts he gave. This has always been one of my favorite tunes. Bless you, Oscar, for all the years of great music. Also rest in peace, Niels-Henning.

Losing Oscar Peterson, Niels-Henning Pedersen, Joe Pass, Bill Evans, Stan Getz, Miles Davis, etc. is heart-breaking. There will never be another period of musical geniuses like the 50s and 60s gave us. It was a high-water mark never to be achieved again it seems.

      I think I would like to pretend that Bill Evans never died. I know how crazy that sounds, but I love Bill Evans for making me feel the way I do when he plays. I cannot explain it. Listening to "Never Let Me Go" for the nearly 15 minutes he plays is like my soul got touched and I left the earth crying all the way. I need to stop.

Talked with him briefly after one of his concerts at Symphony Hall in Boston, while I was a student at Berklee Music College in the mid-80s. He was generous with his advice and as personal as though I was a friend. It only deepened my lifelong, heartfelt joy at his technique and musicality.

    I'm tonally and rhythmically challenged,
    but still pretty not too bad at knowing what sounds good.
    I think the thing with some people who "don't get" jazz is
    that they try to listen too actively
    instead of just enjoying the ride.
    But that's just a long-time novice listener's opinion.

    If you watch any of the live versions of this from his younger years and then watch this version… It is almost a commentary on life.
    The song is such a happy song and with the exuberance of his youth, Oscar was able to light the piano on fire. The melodic style of this song just brings such a refreshing enjoyment of music.
    Watching this version - much slower, with some errors, and his left hand playing a fraction of the notes that it used to be able to play - still a song of beauty but the tempo & the visual of Oscar’s age make this more of a solemn, peaceful, reflective song.
    This is my favorite Oscar Peterson song. Yes, other songs may have been faster and more in line with bebop and did not allow him to show his range of prowess on the piano. Even the original recording wasn’t lightning fast but there was beauty and such a few chords that allowed Oscar and his bassist to dance around beautifully and show their artistic mastery
    If anybody is looking for another soulful and extra melodic jazz song, check out Ray Charles and David “Fathead” Newman - Hard Times

      Prior to this performance, Oscar had a stroke that incapacitated his left hand. I He overcame this and still played with same excellence and high level of emotion as he has so displayed in his entire career. God Bless his soul; he has been my musical hero since 1962.

    Ulf est une des meilleurs guitariste de notre génération , qui a su être exactement le guitariste de Oscar à la fin de sa vie! Love! Live! :-)

    Tocante! Um Peterson mais contemplativo, escolhendo as notas com incomum calma, no auge dos seus 80 anos em sua cidade Natal Montreal, com o velho companheiro dinamarquês Niels Pedersen, eterno virtuose e mais dois companheiros, numa atmosfera de total respeito e reverência pela vida e a obra de um dos maiores pianistas de todos os tempos.

    Non amo le definizioni, le cornici, i confini: i fenomeni, anche quelli musicali, rischiano di perdere il fascino della pura emozione della scoperta.
    Se mi si chiedesse cmnq di definire descrittivamente ciò, potrei affidare la risposta esclusivamente all' ascolto! Questo è puro jazz mediterraneo!

    Un señor que terminó tocando con una sola mano,la derecha, porque la izquierda estaba inhabilitada por una artritis. Así y todo era capaz de meternos en sus notas. Notas con sentido, con bagaje técnico y hasta con dolor. Sus notas en el piano recorrieron el mundo. Empezó en su Canadá natal, siguió en Nueva York y luego se mostró por toda la tierra. Un estilo inconfundible lo respaldaba, una velocidad infernal lo sostenía. Tenía un estilo propio y eso le dió una gran altura como músico. Fue sinónimo del mejor Jazz. Bendito sigues siendo entre todos los jazzeros, quienes te recuerdan a cada momento. Gracias.
