Omar Sosa & Yilian Cañizares — Aguas (October 5th, 2018) |
Omar Sosa & Yilian Cañizares — Aguas (October 5th, 2018)✹ Ačkoli se hluboce vzdělává v jazzových improvizačních technikách, Sosa vždycky vystupoval za jazzovou ortodoxii. Jeho umění zahrnuje v jeho nejširším rozsahu pozoruhodný vějíř vlivů: evropský symfonický repertoár, náboženskou hudbu Gnawy, tradiční zvuky Senegalu a jeho prací prochází další dalekosáhlé idiomy.
✹ Styl Yilian Cañizares odráží různé vlivy v odstínech jazzu, klasické hudby a kubánské hudby s velkým množstvím prostoru pro improvizaci. Francouzský hulturní týdeník „les inRocKuptibles“ mluví v souvislosti s ní o jazzové instrumentaci, smíšené s rituálními perkusemi Yoruby. Zpívá ve španělštině, jorubštině a francouzštině. Jednou z jejích charakteristických rysů je, že hraje housle a zároveň zpívá. Během života procházela nejpřísnější Ruskou tradicí, studovala ve Venezuele a ve městě Fribourg (Švýcarsko). Po objevení francouzského jazzového houslistu Stéphana Grappelliho si osvojila svůj vlastní styl.

✹ After the amazing album „Transparent Water“ with senegalese musician Seckou Keita (kora, vocal), cuban pianist Omar Sosa started a new collaboration with cuban violinist~vocalist Yilian Cañizares to create Aguas, another amazing album, a very beautiful and personal album.
✹ Aguas reflects the perspectives of two generations of Cuban artists living outside their homeland, interpreting their roots and traditions in a subtle and unique fashion. Songs range from the poignant to the exuberant, and are expressive of the exceptional musical chemistry, poetic sensibilities, and originality of the artists. Pianist Omar Sosa and violinist~vocalist Yilian Cañizares have come together to create Aguas, a beautiful and very personal album. Featuring their compatriot, percussionist Inor Sotolongo, Aguas reflects the perspectives of two generations of Cuban artists living outside their homeland, interpreting their roots and traditions in subtle and unique ways. Songs range from the poignant to the exuberant, and are expressive of the exceptional musical chemistry, poetic sensibilities, and originality of the artists.
✹ The material on „Aguas“ is an inventive and engaging mix of the artists’ Afro~Cuban roots, Western classical music, and jazz. The album is dedicated to Water, and especially to Oshun, the Goddess of Love and Mistress of Rivers in the Lucumí tradition of Yoruba ancestry known in Cuba as Santería — a spiritual practice important to both artists.
✹ As water is synonymous with life, and energy, and strength, and space, the music of the album is inspired by the important influences of water — its hidden powers, its infinite transmutations, and its relentless creation. There is a sense, as well, for Omar and Yilian, of how water represents both separation from, and nostalgia for, the land of their birth.
