Preâmble

A restless man

I’ve known Mário Moita’s work for quite some time now. He is one of those artists who manages to surprise you by the evolution coming from his intellectual and aesthetic worries. His voice has grown and won new sounds that together with a fine technique allow his talent to reveal itself in a fascinating way.

Mário Moita is not only an excellent singer, he is a restless man who doesn’t settle for what he has already conquered. He works and researches and tries new things, and by doing that he continuously renews himself.
