Composer, pianist, bandleader Omar Sosa’s music reflects his travels: Cuba to Africa and Brazil, Central America to Ecuador’s African-descent communities, San Francisco and New York, to his current home base in Barcelona. True to his Afro-Cuban origins, Sosa expresses a generosity toward all humanity. Nominated for seven Grammy Awards and twice for the BBC World Music Awards, Sosa entwines the expressive traditions of Africa and the Americas in a unique cosmopolitan voice, bringing a joyous and thoroughly contemporary global Jazz idiom.
Omar Sosa's musical trajectory has taken him from Camagüey and Havana to touring in Angola, the Congo, Ethiopia, and Nicaragua in the '80s; to a sojourn in the African-descent communities of Ecuador in the early '90s; to an extended presence on the San Francisco Bay Area Latin jazz scene. Today, in Barcelona, Sosa is involved in a happy mix of engagements with fellow Jazz musicians from around the world. His career embodies the expansive outlook of a visionary artist who has taken Monk's uncompromising spirit to heart, while working ceaselessly to craft and project a unique, cosmopolitan voice.
We are pleased to have Sosa on our site, and believe his eclectic music would add a dimension of elegance to almost any dramatization or product placement.
