O’s Notes: This is a departure from the usual soundscapes created by Cuban born jazz pianist Omar Sosa. It follows 2013’s Egg n, already a more relaxed take on his brand of fusion. Senses is a solo effort, a beautiful collection on sixteen improvisations created while he was in-residence at Rensselaer Polytechnic’s Experimental Media and Performing Arts Center (EMPAC). It was an emotionally difficult time for Sosa but we can hear the healing through his music. This is peaceful music that can be used for meditation, reflection or tranquility.
