The year 2025 will mark the centennial of Dr. Oscar Peterson one of the great pianists in jazz history and a Canadian national treasure. In addition to winning eight GRAMMY Awards he has received Canada’s highest honors including Officer of the Order of Canada and Companion of the Order of Canada.
He is certainly one of our country’s most precious treasures. Mr. Peterson is considered one of the most prolific pianists in jazz history and it is fitting that his life and great career be celebrated with a musical retrospective featuring some of the most exciting musicians in jazz today.
For the occasion the Oscar Peterson Centennial Quartet was formed and throughout 2025 will tour with a rotating roster in order to showcase as many musicians as possible. For the group’s performance in Nashville the OPCQ will consist of pianist Ben Paterson guitarist Jocelyn Gould bassist Marc Rogers and drummer Jim Doxas.
This unique concert will highlight Mr. Peterson's most famous and appreciated compositions such as Place St-Henri Hymn to Freedom and Cakewalk. Of course great jazz standards will be intertwined with Oscar's works. Additionally during the evening Oscar Peterson’s youngest daughter Céline Peterson will join the quartet to offer the audience an intimate anecdote-filled look into her father’s exceptional life and career. Ms. Peterson and the Oscar Peterson Quartet are proud to join forces in 2025 to celebrate Oscar Peterson’s centennial and to introduce to the general public one of the most important musical figures in jazz history.
