Sarah McKenzie
Sarah McKenzie, a renowned jazz pianist, composer, and vocalist originally from Australia, and her fellow musicians, who are prominent names on the international jazz scene. It was through Oscar Peterson that jazz truly entered Sarah McKenzie's life, specifically when she discovered the album "Night Train" at the age of fifteen. By then, she had been playing piano for ten years—starting with classical piano lessons at the age of five and getting acquainted with rock, blues, and boogie-woogie from the age of nine. Sarah McKenzie describes her encounter with Oscar Peterson through the 1963 classic on her website as "a turning point" and explains: "It was such joyful music that I knew I wanted to dedicate my life to it."
