My name is Flavio Costa. I was born on November 23rd , 1966 in Padua Italy. In 1973, I started playing guitar and in 1975 I wanted to learn to play other instruments, like keyboards , recorder and percussion instruments. I taught myself and I had the help of some musicians like Ermanno Signorelli. I play classical music, flamenco , jazz , blues , latin american , arab music , reggae and rock and roll. I participated into private parties like weddings, ceremonies shows, theatre, concerts etc. I play, write and sing in English , Spanish and Italian. In 1986 I went to London and I lived and worked there for 20 years. I speak Italian, English, Spanish, French and Portuguese. Other job experiences : In 1986 I worked for London television ( BBC and for the BBS Radio) in a tribute to Garcia Lorca. I worked for the Hilton Park Lane Hotel, Dorchester Hotel, Claridge Hotel and Sheraton Hotel. I also played at Ruff Garden for Richard Branson. Thanks to these experiences I was invited from the Royal Family to play for the Prince of Jordany on several occasions. From 2000 to 2002, I worked for MBC television and for the ITV along with the keyboardist from "Imagination", James Brown..s saxophonist , and with Santana..s percussionist . I worked in theatres and concerts in Spain, France, Portugal, Arabia, Great Britain, Ireland, Italy and many more. I played with Antonio Forcione, with  Gipsy King and in private parties for Patrick Swayze and other VIP; I even appeared in some movies. In Italy, I’ve also played in theatres and local television. I..ve also played in charity shows for children with Fabiana Costa, my sister, an international singing storyteller. Recently, we’ve been performing in Barcelona, for the Spanish national television. Now I am working on the release of few albums with my compositions, from 1984 to 2007.
