Jazz legend Oscar Peterson and his six-piece combo get into the festive spirit on this refined 1995 holiday recording An Oscar Peterson Christmas. Peterson's intelligent and seductive keyboard work combined with the skills of his knowing sidemen make for a triumphant set of fourteen standards showcasing the group's intricate interplay and tasty individual solos. The ensembles' discreet blend of vibes, flügelhorn, guitar, bass, drums, and piano adds splashes of colour and shading on classics such as "Let It Snow" while the sentimentality of "White Christmas" is tempered by Peterson's skillful slowing of the down-tempo melody to lend a sense of moody intoxication.
Heavyweight vinyl produced by Universal Music in 2014.
