Omar & NDR Bigband Sosa - Es:sensual [CD] (ONLINE ORDER ONLY)

Es:sensual presents a continuation of Cuban
pianist-composer-bandleader Omar Sosa's
collaboration with Hamburg's NDR Bigband and
acclaimed Brazilian cellist-composer-arranger
Jaques Morelenbaum, whose inaugural effort
can be heard on the ECHO Jazz awarded Omar
Sosa-NDR Bigband CD 'Ceremony' (OTA1021).

Recorded at NDR's Hamburg studios, Es:sensual
features Morelenbaum's vivid arrangements of
selections from a number of Omar Sosa CDs,
including 'Free Roots','Mulatos', 'Promise',
'Across The Divide', 'Eggun' and 'Ile"
a veritable best of Omar Sosa!

Rooted in Afro-Cuban spiritual and percussive
traditions, and intimately versed in a range of
contemporary world musics, Omar's finely textured
compositions present Morelenbaum with
the foundation to summon forth a sweeping
palette of sounds, inspiring the NDR Bigband´s
brilliant soloists.
