O’s Notes: Creole Renaissance is a solo piano effort from Cuban master pianist Aruán Ortiz. The mostly original music (8 of 10 selections), is introspective, deliberate, and thought provoking. The foundation of his works are the roots and traditions of Black experimentation. Ortiz adds spoken word to further his message on “From the Distance of My Freedom”.
