Andrew Litton plays Oscar Peterson Improvisations on Super Audio CD
Andrew Litton plays Oscar Peterson Improvisations
The SACD uses a higher digital resolution than the audio CD and also offers the possibility to store multi-channel sound (surround sound). To enjoy the music in high-end quality, a special SACD player is required. Thanks to the hybrid function, most of the products marked "SACD" in our store can also be played on conventional CD players. In this case, however, the sound does not differ from that of a normal CD. In case of deviations, we point this out separately (non-hybrid).
Lulu's back in town (Harry Warren); 'Round midnight (Thelonius Monk); Body and soul (Johnny Green); A child is born (Thad Jones); Little girl blue (Richard Rodgers);
Take the 'A' train (Billy Strayhorn); Basin street blues (Spencer Williams); How long has this been going on (George Gershwin); The nearness of you (Hoagy Carmichael); Over the rainbow (Harold Arlen); Things ain't what they used to be (Mercer Ellington); Perdido (Juan Tizol)

Zu seinem 16. Geburtstag bekam Andrew Litton eine Klavier-Solo-LP mit Oscar Peterson geschenkt – und war gefesselt: „Wenn ich jemals irgendwas wie einen Gottesdienst erlebt habe – das war es!“ Petersons Spiel fasziniert ihn bis heute: „die erstaunlichen Farben, das Gesangliche, die Pedaltechnik, die Harmonien...“ Über die Jahre stellte Litton fest, dass er keineswegs der einzige „klassische“ Pianist war und ist, den Peterson fasziniert. Littons Auswahl von Transkriptionen Petersonscher Improvisationen umfasst 12 Klassiker über einen Zeitraum von vier Dekaden.
