Oscar Peterson
(Worksheet on video "Oscar Peterson - Hymn to Freedom)
Jazz uses a lot of
improvisation
which means that musicians make up their music on the spot as they are playing. Oscar was a master at improvising on the piano. The above video clip of him playing “Hymn to Freedom” on the piano is a good example of this.
Please answer the following questions below after watching the video and submit here to Mrs. Onuma
