Hi, I'm Marika from Jazz&Swing Band.

Jazz & Swing | Solo, Duo, Trio, or Quartet.

Profile


Marika, a lively, refined, and vibrant pianist and singer, is just as captivating as her music! A lover of jazz and beyond, her style is the perfect match for couples seeking effective yet equally enjoyable musical accompaniment, never intrusive but always present and capable of enriching and enhancing every moment of their special day!


Marika is attentive to the requests of those who choose her and is available to prepare songs on request for specific moments of the event.

His repertoire is entirely live without the use of backing tracks.


His rich and vast repertoire is the result of more than a decade of live music activity: he combines his artistic activity in theaters and jazz festivals, and beyond, with various collaborations with important organizations such as MSC Crociere, fairs and entertainment agencies (Rossetti Entertainment).

Starting from American and Italian standards, his repertoire ranges from the great classics of Italian and international music to blues, pop, rock and film scores, reinterpreting them in a completely personal way but never betraying their essence.


Training

Marika can work alone, but she usually relies on the collaboration of Matteo, a guitarist who later graduated as a trumpet player with top marks, with whom she has been working for years.

The lineup can then be completed with the further addition of a double bass and drums for live music sets, with professional musicians with whom he has several active recording projects, and a violin for any songs for the ceremony.

Repertoire/setlist

The repertoire can be constantly evolving and can be enriched with specific requests.
