Master of a unique sound
language, Tiago Sousa’s story
already has several chapters
and incarnations. What
distinguishes Tiago Sousa’s
approach to the piano is his
natural detachment from styles
and expectations. Too eclectic
for the classical canon, we can
discern vaguely jazzy elements
in his music, together with
various references to ancient
Eastern philosophy and an
infinity of tangled worlds.
Although extremely intimate, the
habitat created by the subtlety
and magnitude of the emotional
implosion of his works is universal. His new album “Organic
Music Tapes Vol 1” is the first in
a series of cassettes of organic
compositions that resemble
stellar and planetary nebulae, in
terms of their mass of blurred
and indeterminate contours.
