Having recently celebrated an extraordinary 20 years since the release of his debut album Opal Fire, Omar Akram
has created innumerable musical memoriesfor fans with his many Billboard charting recordings and toursthroughout
the U.S. and overseas in England, France and most recently, China. While the Grammy winning pianist/composer is
grateful to have shared so many inspiring moments with appreciative audiences, his latest collection Moments Of
Beauty is driven by and animated with a spirit of loving reflection and contemplation that taps into more personal
cherished memories but also feels deeply universal.
In many ways, Moments Of Beauty is the ultimate expression of an approach to composing and producing music that
Omar has developed instinctively over the years. Whereas early in his career, when he released Opal Fire, Free As A
Bird (2004) and Secret Journey (2007), he would go into the studio, take a seat at the piano and start creating. Now,
ten years after winning the Grammy for Best New Age Album for the Gregg Karukas-produced Echoes Of Love, the
pianist is in tune with letting life experiences, both joyful and challenging, serve as his chief inspiration. Moments Of
Beauty is an album which led him to reflect upon his own mortality and the preciousness of each moment of life.
