Opis
Omar Sosa (piano) Leandro Saint-Hill (saxophone, flute) Joo Kraus (trumpet) Childo Tomas (voice, bass) Marque Gilmore (drums) To tackle a mountain like Miles Davis' Kind of Blue, there are two solutions: take it head-on at the risk of getting lost. Or circumvent it with inventiveness. Omar Sosa chose the second option. Pianist with a lavish discography and inexhaustible inventiveness, the Cuban has deconstructed all the components of Miles Davis' masterpiece to recompose them in his own way. Following the spirit rather than the letter: the approach makes sense for a musician full of spirituality like Omar Sosa. On the program, therefore, no Latinized 'So What', no Africanized 'All Blues', no rehashes of John Coltrane solos, but an unprecedented experience crossed by a quiet groove, bursts of electronics and winks. impressionists to the original disc. Recorded at the Jazz la Villette festival, 2014 TV director, Samuel Thiebaut
