His album Walking on Air was nominated for Best Jazz Album at the Juno Awards of 1980.  In 1987, he was a co-founder (with Patrick Taylor) of the Toronto Jazz Festival, serving as its music director until 2009.  Always popular in Europe, he was made a Chevalier of the French Ordre des Arts et des Lettres in 2002.
