Omar Akram - Opal Fire (2002)

Clearly a fan of lyrical melodies that have a beginning, middle and end, Omar spins musical stories of love, loss and redemption, tales that open the heart and touch the soul… Omar plays piano and keyboards throughout Opal Fire. David Dial contributes synthesizers as well as handling the arrangements and orchestrations. For an exotic adventure with ports of call from the Caribbean to Europe to the Middle East, be sure to spend some quality time with the incendiary Opal Fire. A classically-trained pianist with an international upbringing (he is the son of a UN diplomat), Omar mixes acoustic piano with synthesized orchestrations, creating a sparkling musical palette with colors from all over the world. It is full of fire and excitement as well as beauty and emotion, and the instrumentation is varied on each track. Omar’s piano always sings through, and he is obviously a pianist first rather than simply using the piano as one of an assortment of instruments. A very skillful craftsman, Omar takes the best from each without taking anything from any of them and creates a keyboard driven tour de force that takes you somewhere else entirely. As comfortable as your favorite old chair but fresh as a spring breeze, these charming soundscape songs are like mini-movies for your ear. This tasty sonic treat is sure to become a treasured companion on the commute, the jogging trail or for those moments when you need to be alone and wrap your head in something de-stressing and wonderful. ----- Enjoy!!! ----- Здесь вы можете слушать онлайн Omar Akram, mp3 бесплатно и без регистрации.
