Amazon.co.ukRecorded in 1956 and adding two bonus tracks to the original issue, At The Stratford Shakespeare Festival is one of Oscar Peterson's most celebrated CDs. A definitive set of performances by the pianist's first great trio, with guitarist Herb Ellis and bassist Ray Brown, it abounds no less in melodic harmonic invention than in power. Almost every track is a masterpiece, but particular mention must be made of "How About You", at once electrifying and light-footed, "Swingin' on a Star" (as witty as blistering) and, perhaps especially, the slow-burning, eventually tumultuous "Love You Madly". -- Richard PalmerProduct descriptionCD: The Oscar Peterson Trio,At The Stratford Shakespearean Festival
