The Compleat Piano Player
Oscar Peterson is probably the most popular and respected pianist in jazz today.
In conversation with PETER CLAYTON , he talks about his musical career - the early days when his recording company made him play boogie-woogie, the bulk of his work in the trio format, and more recent successful solo appearances. Peterson also enjoys accompanying other artists-he has a particular regard for Ben Webster and Billie Holiday
The programme is illustrated by some of his many records

(His film, The Invasion of Space, Omnibus, Easter Day BBC1) followed by an interlude
