Der kanadische Jazzpianist Oscar Peterson (1925-2007), der am 15. August 2025 seinen 100. Geburtstag gefeiert hatte, war schon zu Lebzeiten eine Legende. Johannes Kunz, der Peterson personlich gut gekannt hat, portratiert diesen Ausnahmekunstler in einem reich bebilderten Werk. Oscar Peterson hat in seiner Karriere 200 eigene Alben veroffentlicht und ist auf etwa 400 weiteren zu horen, hat mehr Platten verkauft und mehr Konzerte gegeben als jeder andere Pianist in der Geschichte des Jazz. Kein Pianist hat mehr zur Anerkennung des Jazz als Kunstform und zur weltweiten Popularisierung dieser Musik beigetragen. Quincy Jones, Produzent, Trompeter, Komponist und Bandleader, urteilte: Oscar Peterson war einer der letzten Giganten des Jazz. Seine Musik wird ewig Bestand haben. Johannes Kunz, der Peterson seit den 1960er-Jahren personlich kannte und mit ihm Konzerte veranstaltet hat, zeichnet anhand von Gesprachen mit ihm, seinem Manager Norman Granz und musikalischen Mitstreitern wie Ray Brown oder Ella Fitzgerald ein faszinierendes und reich bebildertes Portrat dieses umjubelten Kunstlers.
