ZOHAR (Composer)

My practice is situated between various musical traditions. I studied classical composition at the Royal College of Music after years of professionally playing rock guitar. As a composer for film, television, dance and theatre, I have written scores in a multitude of genres and forms on commission, while specialising in contemporary production techniques. The music I make today draws on all of these practices and re-appropriates them to tell a story. |
