Oscar Peterson's Easter Suite (1984)

"Easter Suite" resta una delle migliori composizioni di Oscar Peterson ma, sebbene sia ampiamente menzionata nelle sue biografie, è di fatto una delle meno conosciute a livello di grande pubblico. Commissionata dal South Bank Show, il programma televisivo "artistico" di London Weekend Television, fu trasmesso in diretta nazionale nell'aprile 1984. Opera ambiziosa, segue una storia gospel tramite una suite in otto movimenti. Oltre alle registrazioni della prima mondiale, il DVD contiene anche una lunga intervista con Peterson, che rivela i motivi per cui ha accettato la commissione, i problemi incontrati in fase di scrittura e la sua relazione con il gospel e la musica spirituale.
