Omar Sosa (piano) in a duet concert with hand percussion. Nice mix of expansive jazz soloing with that "world" percussion flavor. Mostly upbeat and playful -- brisk jams. Very cool.

1*- Piano solo (w/little bit of drums). Starts playfully quiet. Gets big and dynamic later.
2- Fast, happy. Ends on a bouncy Latin riff.
3- Quietly chugging
4*- Starts quiet, gets into some brilliant explorations
5- Quick and rolling; happy
6*- Fast shuffle, cool echoey effects
7- Latin feel, agile and dramatic
8*- High energy, fast
9- Slow. Starts pretty, gets loud later.
