The solitary piano speaks of the coexistence of tranquility and power
This solo work, composed solely for piano, is characterized by its rich tone and meticulous structure. Its consistent lyricism, while retaining a sense of improvisation, reflects his musical maturity. It is a highly sophisticated fusion of technique and emotional expression.
This is a work in which Oscar Peterson has mastered his art with just one piano. While possessing a sense of swing, each note has a breath and space, allowing you to truly experience the depth of his playing. The recording is natural, conveying even the subtlest changes in pedal resonance and touch, leading the listener to a sense of quiet tension. The composition is simple yet structured, crystallizing the musical theory and improvisational skills he has cultivated over many years. While understated, his true expressive talent shines through.
