About Renaissance...
This recording is dedicated to pianist Oscar Peterson-one of the most prolific musicians of the twentieth century. A consummate artist and performer, Peterson’s artistry has influenced pianists worldwide. Renaissance is not an attempt to render a stylistic recreation of Peterson’s unrivaled pianistic prowess. Rather, it is a tribute to his musicianship and creativity. The compositions contained in this recording reflect various elements of Peterson’s style and technique. While we have lost one of the greatest musical innovators of our time in Oscar Peterson, Renaissance is but one embodiment of the “rebirth” that his influence will engender for generations to come. If you are a fan of Oscar Peterson, Milt Jackson and Ray Brown, you will enjoy Renaissance.
