At just 37 years of age, Marco Mezquida (Maó, 1987) has positioned himself among the most valued and sought-after musicians on the jazz and improvised music scene in Spain, as well as being considered one of the most complete and expressive artists of his generation.
His musical language reflects all the music he has been passionate about: jazz, free improvisation, romantic classical music, modern music, his love for the world of song and Iberian and Latin American popular music, contemporary music, pop and rock, flamenco and early music.
In this concert at the Jazz Palma Festival 2024, Marco Mezquida performs with the trio he leads, presenting Tornado (self-released, 2023), conceived with and for two old and dear friends with whom he shares a long history of music, connection and experiences on the road. For his creation, he has imagined a music of contrasts, with spaces to express himself in visceral moments alternating with spaces of a more introspective and intimate intensity.
