Oscar Petersons herausragende LP von 1959, die die Musik von Harold Arlen feiert. Der Komponist schrieb mehr als 500 Lieder, von denen eine Reihe weltweit bekannt geworden sind. Neben der Komposition der Lieder für den Film "Der Zauberer von Oz" (Text von E.Y. Harburg) aus dem Jahr 1939, darunter der Klassiker "Over the Rainbow", ist Arlen ein hochgeschätzter Mitwirkender am Great American Songbook. "Over the Rainbow" wurde von der Recording Industry Association of America (RIAA) und der National Endowment for the Arts (NEA) zum Song Nr. 1 des zwanzigsten Jahrhunderts gewählt.
What could be a better pairing than Oscar Peterson, the pianist who most effectively parlayed jazz virtuosity into a popular following that extended far beyond the jazz world, and Harold Arlen, the Tin Pan Alley-based writer of Broadway and film scores whose songs always had a close kinship to jazz and the blues?
In 1954, Peterson and his trio devoted an entire album to Arlen’s music. Five years later, he and his new trio did it again. This reissue combines both sessions.
Original recordings produced by Norman Granz. Tracks 1–12: Recorded November 1954 at Radio Recorders, Hollywood. Tracks 13, 14, 16, and 18–24. Tracks 15 and 17. Recorded between July 21 and August 1, 1959 at Universal Recording Studios, Chicago.
