MÁRIO COSTA
Genres: Avant-Garde Jazz, 21st Century Modern • Portugal

Mário Costa played the drum kit in Emile Parisian´s super-group with Joachim Kuhn and Michel Portal. «Now he belongs to the top modern drummers in jazz», Kuhn states about the wide projection resulting from the excellent work he’s developing with such great company. “Oxy Patina” is another step in that path, presenting himself also as a composer, and again with top French players, Marc Ducret and Benoît Delbecq. Both are meticulous researchers of the capacities of their respective instruments and both have strong personal languages – Mário Costa couldn’t be more ambitious in the choice of partners, but he brilliantly achieves all his intentions. The album „Oxo Patina“ was released in 2018 (Clean Feed). from http://europejazz.net
