Remembering Oscar: NMC to celebrate 100th anniversary of Oscar Peterson's birth with exhibit, concerts
Article content When Andy Milne was a student studying jazz at York University, one of his teachers offered some seemingly obvious advice: 'Learn the song.' Article content It was in the mid-1980s, and Milne, who would go on to be a versatile and Juno-winning composer and jazz pianist, at first thought this guidance was a little flippant. But it was coming from the great Oscar Peterson, who would routinely toss out these sorts of pearls and spark some deep thinking in Milne about what he meant. Eventually, he realized Peterson was not being flippant or obvious. Article content Article content 'It was weeks later when it hit me what he meant,' says Milne, in an interview with Postmedia from his home in Ann Arbor, Mich. 'It was much richer than that. I just found it fascinating, and, as a teacher myself now, I think back to him saying it literally and matter-of-fact and giving you the assignment to go figure out what he meant. Learn the song could mean 'Oh, I don't know the song very well. I guess if I just learn the song a little better, I'll sound good.' That's not what he meant. In terms of a 360-degree relationship with a piece of music, it's much more of an investigation around it and thinking more richly about the relationship.' Article content Article content Aug. 15 marks the 100th anniversary of Peterson's birth in Montreal and is also the date when Milne will perform Andy Milne: In Tribute to Oscar Peterson 100 at the National Music Centre. It coincides with the centre's newly opened exhibit, Timeless: 100 Years of Oscar Peterson, which features a wide variety of artifacts, awards, testimonials and instruments from the pianist's illustrious career. Article content Article content Milne will play some of Peterson's compositions and talk about the legend's influence on him. As a Canadian jazz pianist and composer — not to mention someone with a personal connection to the man — it may seem that Peterson's influence is a given. But Milne says he hopes to 'highlight maybe the more unusual ways that central cultural and artistic figures' influence people and communities. Article content 'I'm going to pay homage to him by talking about him and talking about his influence and playing pieces that he composed that I played in my formative years,' he says. 'At this point, they mean something different to me now than they did when I was a young kid. My approach is different, and the sound I'm going to be going for is different because I'm not an artist where someone would say 'Yeah, you really sound like you're influenced by Oscar Peterson' — that low-hanging fruit that someone might associate with me, even though he is a huge influence. It's important to talk and share what influence means and how we can be distracted by more obvious ways of looking for that and validating that kind of weight in a cultural space.'

Toronto film festival's TV lineup adds Jude Law, Ethan Hawke, Toni Collette shows
TORONTO – Big-screen heavyweights are all over the small-screen lineup at the Toronto International Film Festival, which will preview new shows from Jude Law, Jason Bateman, Toni Collette, Ethan Hawke and Mae Martin. Festival organizers say its Primetime slate will open with Hulu's 'The Lowdown' from 'Reservation Dogs' co-creator, writer and director Sterlin Harjo. It stars Hawke as a Tulsa citizen journalist obsessed with exposing corruption. Meanwhile, Netflix hits the fest with two limited series: 'Black Rabbit,' starring Law and Bateman as brothers who run a Manhattan restaurant and VIP lounge; and the Canadian drama 'Wayward,' about a school for troubled teens starring Martin and Collette, Ryan Scott and Sarah Gadon. The lineup hints at the star wattage bound TIFF's 50th edition Sept. 4 to 14, since organizers say all Primetime screenings will include an extended Q+A with creators and cast. TIFF also announced 48 films in its Short Cuts program, and introduced a new award for best animated short, joining the fest's two prizes for international and Canadian shorts. The 48 shorts include the world premieres of 'Dust to Dreams' directed by actor Idris Elba and starring singer Seal; and 'The Contestant,' starring David Hasselhoff, from duo Patrick Xavier Bresnan and Ivete Lucas. North American premieres include Joecar Hanna's 'Talk Me,' executive produced by Spike Lee, and 'The Non-Actor' starring Maya Hawke and Victoria Pedretti. The 20 Canadian titles include 'The Girl Who Cried Pearls' from Oscar-nominated animators Chris Lavis and Maciek Szczerbowski and the satire 'Bots' from 'Scarborough' directors Rich Williamson and Shasha Nakhai. Kelly Fyffe-Marshall of the TIFF '22 feature 'When Morning Comes' joins the shorts lineup with 'Demons' while Chelsea McMullan of the TIFF '23 ballet doc 'Swan Song' returns with 'Healer.' This report by The Canadian Press was first published Aug. 7, 2025.
