In continued celebration of Black History Month, we invite you to revisit this incredible 45 minute audio performance from
Thompson Egbo-Egbo which was part of our Keeping Jazz Alive Series. Listen via our
website. As you may know, Thompson Egbo-Egbo,
portrays Canadian Jazz great Oscar Peterson in a new edition of Historica Canada's well-recognized 60-second short films.
Filmed in 2019, the clip was released this month as part of the organization's observance of Black History Month.
You can read or listen to the interview with Thompson and Brad Barker on the Jazz FM
website and watch the short
film via YouTube.
