Great stuff! I enjoyed the neat little quotation from Debussy's 'Clair de lune' that Oscar gets in at around 4'06" and then from Rach 2 at around 4' 53"!
I love how Peterson sneaks in some Classical tunes in his improvisations. Do I hear bits of Clair de Lune and even some Rachmaninov in here? Tatum did that also though (nobody knows the trouble I've seen.)
Art sure played pretty! I grew up hearing Art play because my Dad played the piano and had lots of admiration for Art. Dad played some of these songs! I used to fall asleep listening to him play nearly every night. Wonderful memories.
Oscar more rithmical style Art more brookly .

to Mr @dhack, yes indeed, Tatum was and will always be a supreme artist.

Have you ever heard the saying, Theres always somebody that's better than you out there? I don't think this applies to Tatum.

Imagine hearing this in a war torn environment in 1945! Amid death and torment comes Art Tatum's message of pure peace......

@dhackj I like a comment like that! There is in the true art a force that consoles and frees ... and Tatum is a supreme artist ...

I never tire of the music of Art Tatum and his talent never ceases to amaze me. He was just wonderful!
