The album takes the listener on a journey inspired by the sky and its unifying strength, reflecting ideals of open-mindedness and embracing European classical music, American Jazz, Brazilian music, Portuguese Fado and Spanish Flamenco. It is also an ode to the idyllic <span class=\"il\">Cycladic<\/span> islands in Greece, where most of the tracks were <span class=\"il\">written<\/span>.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\">Piano, Compositions, Arrangements, Production &#8211; Dan Costa<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\">Featured artists: Roberto Menescal (acoustic guitar), Jorge Helder (Double Bass), Teco Cardoso (flute), Custodio Castelo (Portuguese Guitar), Romero Lubambo (Acoustic guitar), Nelson Faria (electric guitar), Seamus Blake (tenor saxophone)<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\">Recorded, mixed and mastered by Stefano Amerio, Italy<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\">Cover Art: Dhruv Sharma, Dan Costa<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\">Photos: Alon Levin<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\">Released on 7th October 2018<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><a href=\"https:\/\/music.apple.com\/us\/album\/skyness\/1437324903\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone\" src=\"https:\/\/help.apple.com\/assets\/5CA7D687680CE2865E400B79\/5CA7D68E680CE2865E400B82\/el_GR\/6c4ec679fc7e16151828b2ad053880a3.png\" alt=\"\u039a\u03b1\u03bb\u03ce\u03c2 \u03bf\u03c1\u03af\u03c3\u03b1\u03c4\u03b5 \u03c3\u03c4\u03bf iTunes \u03c3\u03c4\u03bf Mac - Apple \u03c5\u03c0\u03bf\u03c3\u03c4\u03ae\u03c1\u03b9\u03be\u03b7\" width=\"151\" height=\"151\"><\/a><a href=\"https:\/\/www.amazon.com\/Skyness-Dan-Costa\/dp\/B07HNV63DG\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone\" src=\"https:\/\/1000logos.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/10\/Amazon-Logo.png\" alt=\"Amazon logo and symbol, meaning, history, PNG\" width=\"293\" height=\"117\"><\/a><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><iframe loading=\"lazy\" src=\"https:\/\/w.soundcloud.com\/player\/?url=https%3A\/\/api.soundcloud.com\/tracks\/390776754&amp;color=%23ff5500&amp;auto_play=false&amp;hide_related=false&amp;show_comments=true&amp;show_user=true&amp;show_reposts=false&amp;show_teaser=true\" width=\"100%\" height=\"166\" frameborder=\"no\" scrolling=\"no\">&lt;span style=&#8221;display: inline-block; width: 0px; overflow: hidden; line-height: 0;&#8221; data-mce-type=&#8221;bookmark&#8221; class=&#8221;mce_SELRES_start&#8221;&gt;\ufeff&lt;\/span&gt;<\/iframe><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><iframe loading=\"lazy\" style=\"border: none; overflow: hidden;\" src=\"https:\/\/www.facebook.com\/plugins\/video.php?href=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.facebook.com%2Fdancostajazz%2Fvideos%2F1868036679885928%2F&amp;am;width=560\" width=\"560\" height=\"315\" frameborder=\"0\" scrolling=\"no\" allowfullscreen=\"allowfullscreen\"><\/iframe><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\">Recorded in Rio de Janeiro in 2016, jazz\/world music album Suite Tr\u00eas Rios<br>recaptures the essence of Brazilian rhythms, with shades of classical music.
