Oscar Peterson

Oscar Emmanuel Peterson (* 15. august 1925, Montreal, Quebec, Kanada – † 23. december 2007, Toronto, Ontário, Kanada) bol kanadský džezový klavirista a skladateľ, hudobnými kritikmi považovaný za jedného z najlepších klaviristov  všetkých čias (Scott Yanow, 2004). 

Petersonova hudba je plná swingu a džezových improvizácií. Jeho veľkým vzorom bol legendárny džezový pianista Art Tatum.
