Oscar Peterson: Black + White

Oscar Peterson: Black + White is a ground-breaking 'docu-concert' that explores the life and legacy of jazz icon and composer, Oscar Peterson: his sound, stardom, and cult of virtuoso. Across a seven-decade career of musical genius: from Peterson's days as a child prodigy to the development of his signature sound on recordings with his trio, from his collaborations with huge stars to his shifts to brilliant solo performances around the world - this film pays tribute to Peterson's tenacious experiences confronting racism and segregation while touring in the United States, which culminated in his epic composition of Hymn to Freedom.
