Oscar Peterson World Tour on 180g 6LP + Book Box Set: Features Live Performances from 1969 to 1996, and More Than Four Hours of Unreleased Music

In celebrating the enduring impact Oscar Emmanuel Peterson has had on the world since 1925, we must first lift the veil and allow all who have been inspired by his creativity to understand the man at a more intimate level: his vulnerability, his dedication, his passion and his family. Join us for a World Tour of Oscar's music from 1969 through 1996, accompanied by a behind-the-curtain Tour of Oscar's World, each aiming to recreate the joy and discovery in examining the legacy forged by a titan of musicianship, friendship and compassion.
