O’s Notes: Pianist and composer Floriano Inacio leads a multicultural team for Novas Raízes, (new roots) seeking earth, path and union. The music is relaxing, contemporary, Latin jazz that is enjoyable from end to end with threads of samba to relax the soul. “Eles Em Canoa” features trombonist Nils Wogram with a pleasant bold sound. “Gratitude” is the sole vocal track featuring David Linux, one of several strong selections along with “Ventos do Sahara featuring Daniel Schenker (flugelhorn) and “La no Cacique”. Inacio achieves the unity he seeks and delivers a rich seamless performance.
