Frequently asked questions
How do I book Mar Serra Grup?
Fill in the form on this page with the date or period you have in mind, the town and the venue, or write directly to [email protected]. You will get a reply with availability, a quote, the concert dossier and the technical rider.
How much does a concert cost?
There is no single fee. The quote depends on the line-up (from solo piano to sextet), the duration, the travel involved and the type of programme, and is prepared individually once the request comes in.
How long is a concert?
The ensemble programmes — Vivit and I sempre demà — run for around 70 minutes. The solo piano recital and the piano and violin duo are adapted to the length the series needs.
How many musicians perform?
It depends on the line-up: 1 for solo piano, 2 for the piano and violin duo, 4 for the quartet with violin and up to 6 for the sextet, which adds saxophone and guitar.
What kind of venues suit the programmes?
Concert halls, theatres, jazz clubs, cultural centres, open-air festivals, heritage venues and municipal programmes. The repertoire and line-up are adjusted to the capacity and character of the room.
Does the venue need a piano?
A grand piano tuned on the day of the concert is preferred. If the venue does not have one, the group brings its own keyboard; the solo piano recital does require a grand piano in the room.
Does the group perform outside Catalonia?
Yes. Most concerts take place in Catalonia — L'Auditori de Barcelona, Sala Jamboree, Vijazz Penedès, Fira Mediterrània de Manresa and the jazz series of Granollers, Cambrils or Sant Feliu de Llobregat — but performances are also programmed elsewhere in Spain and in Europe. State the town in your request so travel and accommodation can be costed.
Can a local council book the group?
Yes. A significant share of the concerts are municipal programmes, such as those of Abrera, Castellbisbal and Badalona. Bookings are formalised by invoice and the paperwork required by the public body is provided.
Is there a press kit?
Yes. The concert dossier and the detailed technical rider are sent once the request comes in. The photo gallery has images for promoters and the press, and the concert history lists the dates with a documented source.
