Mário Barreiros - Dois Quartetos Sobre o Mar (2022) Hi-Res

«A documentary, which is a real portrait of the life of the oceans, became the starting point for this collective creation. That's how this work of two different moods was born, sometimes with the Quarteto Pacífico, with a more romantic tune, sometimes with the Abyssal Quartet, more exploratory of dense and deep waters. This is a dive into the mysterious big blue, and in the best of company», says Mário Barreiros.

“Só Ten o Corpo Memória” is the first theme to be revealed from the new album of originals. It is written by the Galician pianist Abe Rábade, and is here interpreted by the Quarteto Pacifico: Mário Barreiros (drums), Carlos Barretto (double bass), Abe Rábade (piano) and Ricardo Toscano (alto sax). The second quartet to sign this soundscape in 8 movement is composed by Demian Cabaud (double bass), Miguel Meirinhos (piano), José Pedro Coelho (sax) and, naturally, Mário Barreiros on drums.
