JazzFest History

Oscar Peterson

Instrument: Piano
Born: West Indies

"The day I don't feel I can't come up with it, that's the day I don't go past the lights. This is hard to talk about without sounding like a super ego. People don't understand, but I simply don't think negatively about what I'm going to do."
