This six-piece Brisbane group combines sounds from East and West with ease and sensuality, creating music that is one of a kind. Mzaza's repertoire spans from classical Turkish tunes fused with jazz-style improvisation vocals, to French chanson, and interpretations of Sephardic/Spanish songs. Born in France to French and Moroccan parents, Pauline Maudy sings in French, Spanish, Turkish and Arabic. Bill Anderson plays ud, and wind instruments including, ney, kaval and tin whistle. Greta Kelly plays violin and kemanche (a spikefiddle with Persian/Turkish origins). Miranda Deutsch, on guitar, plays with a manouche flavour. Steven Cuttriss is on the accordion, and percussionist Jordan Stamos plays darabuka and bendir.
Mzaza’s first record “Parliament of the Birds” showcases the band’s versatility and guarantees to transport you to faraway places.
The CD doesn't just sound good. It features photography by the no-less-than-amazing Richard Walker, art by the talented Jesse Olsen, and graphics by the fantastic Georgia Thompson.
