The album fulfils the promise of its title: it is hot, stimulating and invigorating. "Mocca Swing" is a showcase of Mulo Francel's musical work. A document of his role as a passionate bridge builder between young and old, home and foreign, jazz and all other types of music.

Mulo Francel
With his extravagant playing style, Mulo Francel explores the boundaries between jazz, classical music, and world music. Bossa Nova and cool jazz blend with a penchant for tango, Mediterranean musical art, and Old European melodies. Kulturnews magazine attributed to him "the most sensual saxophone sound in Europe at the moment." Mulo Francel is a founding member of Germany's most successful world music band, Quadro Nuevo.
