Omar Sosa - An East African Journey
European copy
Omar Sosa has been passionately interested in exploring African musical cultures and their connections with his Afro-Cuban roots since early in his career – subtly blending traditional and contemporary sounds on many of his recordings.
He has forged collaborations with Gnawa musicians in Morocco, and with musicians from Senegal, Mozambique, Mali, Ecuador, Venezuela, Brazil, and South Africa, et al. Highlights include his 2002 GRAMMY-nominated recording ‘Sentir’ featuring Moroccan singer and Guimbre player El Houssaine Kily, and his 2008 CD release ‘Afreecanos’ which served as a point of departure for his East Africa project.
An East African journey highlights a series of extraordinary musical encounters between Cuban pianist and composer Omar Sosa and some of the most significant musicians in East Africa. It is a highly expressive and beautiful combination of various ancient traditions with exquisite jazz and Western classical music influences.
