Omar Sosa has not only received several Grammy nominations for his albums, the Cuban is also without doubt the highest regarded pianist of the current generation. Sosa's music covers a wide stylistic spectrum and is moulded by diverse influences: the composer and pianist creates an individual blend of Cuban music, African elements, jazz, avantgarde and World Music.

"Sosa's music is the unifying sort, yoking together Africa and jazz and Latin America and hip-hop. He makes it work, being one of those rare birds whose keyboard skills are near those of Chick Corea or Chucho Valdés." (Ben Ratliff, New York Times)

" Sosa is one of the truly illuminated minds of world jazz. He is shaping a new synthesis of Latin & American jazz." (Billboard)
