Llegada con Elegba, Fiesta de Yemaya

It should come as a surprise to no one that I'm posting the latest Omar Sosa videos I've found from his latest release Ceremony. These come at just the right time as I'm in the process of moving my home and will be burning sage tomorrow to cleanse/bless my home with two close friends/chosen family. Enjoy!

This video is made with material filmed during the recording sessions for the Omar Sosa & NDR Bigband CD, “Ceremony”, arranged and conducted by Jaques Morelenbaum (the song is “Llegada con Elegba”), together with material that Omar Sosa filmed in Bahia, Brazil.
