Title |
Oscar Peterson’s Montreal Childhood in Saint-Henri
|
Abstract |
International renowned jazz pianist Oscar Peterson (1925-2007) grew up in the Montreal district of Saint Henri, a working class neighbourhood with a small but tight-knit Black community. Includes interviews with two important teachers in Oscar Peterson's early musical training, his sister Daisy Peterson Sweeney (1920-2017) and the Hungarian-born classical pianist Paul de Marky (1897-1982). Peterson later credited them for making him believe he had something to offer to the musical world.
