The Dan Costa Quartet will perform at the Warkworth Town Hall on Saturday November 9, starting at 4pm.
UK-born Costa trained as a classical pianist in France, studied jazz and contemporary piano styles at the Liverpool Institute of Performing Arts, and Latin music at the Escola Superior de Música e Artesdo Espectáculo in Portugal.
He will share the stage with Dunedin Jazz Club director Bill Martin on tenor saxophone, backed by Tūī Award winner Umar Zakaria on double bass and Carl Woodward on drums.
Together, the quartet will present Costa’s original compositions accompanied by his Latin-inflected jazz piano style.
Costa released his first album, Suite Três Rios, in 2016, considered one of the best albums of the year by DownBeat Magazine. His latest album, Beams, (2022) was recorded in New York with Dave Liebman and John Patitucci.
The concert is presented by Warkworth Music, in partnership with Chamber Music New Zealand.
