Mario Serio on Jazz Piano

Well known for his sophisticated musical approach, lush harmonic sense and keen ability to accompany vocalists and instrumentalists sensitively, he remains highly in demand by the American, Latin American and Asian musical communities. Recently Mario was commissioned by the Esplanade to coordinate a series of musical jazz jam sessions in association with the Mosaic Music Festival to heighten awareness of the international festival, demonstrate improvisational concepts and present a cross section of Singapore's musical community. Currently you can catch him at Singapore’s jazz hotspot Jazz@Southbridge, as the resident pianist on Sundays (Jam Session Night) and Tuesdays - or on this special evening in Cafe Amigo when he will be accompanied by Joshua Wang (Bass) and Hannes Hentze (drums).
