Review

ZAO proposes through its albums a fusion of rock, jazz, Hungarian folk influences and the mark of modern composers (BARTOK, STRAVINSKI...). Created in 1973 by two former MAGMA members, Yochk'o SEFFER (Saxophone) and François "FATON" CAHEN (Keyboards), the band offers a music with complex writing. The compositions are very sophisticated, where saxophone and piano play themes with strange tones. "Z=7L" is their first album with Mauricia PLATON's superb voice. On "Osiris" (1974), a classical string quartet participated to the orchestration. "Kawana" is a bit more jazz-rock oriented. "Typhareth" is the last album of the band, recorded shortly after Yochk'o SEFFER left, closer to American jazz-rock ala WEATHER REPORT. "Akhenaton" is the album from the band's reunion in 1994 and its come back to its original music. An essential band from the Seventies musical French scene !
