Prior to hearing Omar Sosa and his Quarteto Americanos perform in Healdsburg, CA, I’d listened to many of his recordings.

I’d watched the excellent documentary about his life and art “Omar Sosa’s 88 Well-Tuned Drums” right before the show. None of this prepared me adequately for the experience of hearing Sosa and his band play at the Raven Performing Arts Center on June 17, 2024.
The experience for me was exhilarating, fascinating, uplifting – all of those things and more.
The band – Omar Sosa [Camagüey, Cuba] on acoustic piano, two synthesizers, wicker brushes, Sheldon Brown [Oakland, CA] on tenor and soprano saxophones, bass clarinet, flute, chinese musette, oboe, Ernesto Mazar Kindelán [Santiago de Cuba] on baby bass, Josh Jones [Berkeley, CA] on drums, bongos, and assorted percussion, played with an exuberance and mastery that shook Raven Performing Arts Center.
