Side by Side album for sale Product Description

Side by Side album for sale by Itzhak Perlman / Oscar Peterson was released Jun 19, 2012 on the City Hall label. Classical violinist Itzhak Perlman is not a jazz improviser, so this meeting with the Oscar Peterson Quartet is more a loving tribute to the melodies (ten veteran standards plus two Peterson originals) than a strong jazz date. Side by Side CD music While Perlman sticks closely to the themes, one's attention focuses much more on Peterson, who had suffered a serious stroke a few years earlier and had been inactive ever since. Side by Side buy CD music Peterson sounds healthy in his supportive role, and although it is doubtful if he sweat much during this relaxed music, his apparent comeback is great news.

Two of the Best!
I had heard one track from this disc played on a local jazz station while driving in the car. It was so good, I phoned the station to find out what it was! Ordered it with fingers crossed, but every single track is superb. That's what happens when two greats team up! But I was especially taken by Perlman's jazz interpretations. It is my new favorite disc. An absolute soul stirrer.
