Throughout his long and brilliant career, pianist Oscar Peterson had two partners who helped him shape his seminal, highly personal trio style: bassists Ray Brown and Niels Henning Ørsted Pedersen. Their contributions were very different: Brown focused on the considerably rhythmic concept of walking bass; NHØP provided a more harmonically advanced background with their solos featuring wind instrument-like phrasing. Peterson, Brown, and Pedersen were highly creative musicians who influenced several generations of performers; and their legacy can be felt in the playing of many contemporary musicians. In 2010, I decided to bring together, for the Colmar Festival, three European musicians deeply rooted in this idea: pianist Ignasi Terraza; French bassist Pierre Boussaguet; and Swedish guitarist Ulf Wakenius. All three have developed Over the years,
they have developed very personal styles, but they maintain the influence of the masters and their music in their playing. Since then, this trio has continued to collaborate intermittently, but it was only in 2024, following a concert in Barcelona, that they had the opportunity to enter a studio to record some of these magnificent songs, including immortal Peterson classics such as Cakewalk and You Look Good to Me, as well as some of their own compositions, such as Mother Land (Boussaguet); Give Me Another (Terraza), and Lines for Oscar (Wakenius).
