Thanks for posting that Oscar Peterson/Count Basie duet.
Ella Fitzgerald did some wonderful duets with both men, each of who brought out a different color in her voice.
Here's a gorgeous blending of Oscar and late-career Ella in a slow-blues rendition of "More Thank You Know":

And here's a 10-minute jam session between Ella and Count Basie and His Orchestra called "Basella," in which her love for each and every member of his band is apparent in the improvised wordless musical dialogue she has with each of them as she introduces the guys in the band. And I love when the Count laughs in appreciation of her riffs.
