Search - Oscar Trio Meets Coleman Hawkins Peterson :: Live in Hannover 1967

In 1967, when this concert was performed, Oscar Peterson was already a well known figure and Hawkins, the inventor of tenor sax in jazz was, by then, almost a myth. Hawkins and Peterson knew each other well and had performed together on many occasions, beginning with the early Jazz at the Philharmonic concerts organized by Norman Granz in the late Forties. This previously unissued concert in Hannover was taped for a German radio broadcast. It is, in fact, an important addition to their not so prolific discography together, as it constitutes their last known musical encounter. 13 tracks including 'Satin Doll', 'September Song', 'Let's Fall In Love', 'Moonglow' and more. Gambit. 2006.
