Today, we remember the extraordinary Oliver Jones (1934–2026).

A legendary pianist, composer, and one of Canada's greatest jazz artists, Oliver's music transcended generations. His unmistakable sound carried joy, tenderness, resilience, and an enduring love for jazz that will continue to inspire artists and audiences for years to come.

To honour his remarkable life and artistry, we've curated "Ode to Oliver", a playlist celebrating just a small selection of his incredible work.

Thank you, Oliver, for the music, the inspiration, and the legacy you leave behind.
