Few musicians embody the spirit of Canadian music like Oscar Peterson, and few trumpeters bring his legacy to life like Jens Lindemann. A virtuoso performer and former member of the legendary Canadian Brass, Lindemann leads an all-star ensemble in this exhilarating tribute marking the 100th anniversary of Peterson’s birth.

The Canadiana Suite, Peterson’s iconic musical portrait of Canada, will be the heart of the program, alongside tributes to jazz trumpet legends including Doc Severinsen, Chuck Mangione, Al Hirt, Herb Alpert, and Louis Armstrong.

Expect a performance filled with brilliance, soul, and the kind of swing that leaves audiences buzzing.
