Member Since9/30/2006
Band Websitetzadik.com
Band MembersYves WEYH accordion, composition - Alexandre WIMMER guitars, electronic, composition - Vincent POSTY el. bass - Pascal GULLY drums
InfluencesZAKARYA loots the most various of musical styles. From rock, it takes the sound group. From contemporary musics, polyrhythms and un-tonality. From dance music, the direct and popular side. From jazz, the improvisation. From Klezmer or Balkan musics, their melodies. "Musiques concrètes" or electronic, cartoons, circuses, sound effects and minimalism are not forgotten.
With all those elements, ZAKARYA makes a stimulating and surprisingly original music. Here, folk arts are coming close to the avant-garde; the composed and the improvised are walking hand in hand; jazz and rock exchange winks. The only rule is to play a personal, rigorous and exhilarating music. Compositions "à tiroir", hidden beats, musical puzzles, culinary recipes as scores, clichés. Each of us is invited to listen to the story in the story, to appreciate the wheeze or to unravel the scripts which are building this repertoire.

   About zakarya
ZAKARYA is a French quartet founded in 1999.
In 2000, John Zorn, leader of New York's musical avant-garde, discovered the compositions of the unclassified accordionist and band's leader, Yves WEYH and proposed to produce their first CD on his prestigious label TZADIK. Only French band produced by John Zorn, ZAKARYA, released its first album in 2001. In the midst of Tzadik, their name comes close to others like Masada, Derek Bailey, Fred Frith, and Mike Patton...and the CD is available all over the world (USA, Europe, Japan...).
Two years later, in 2003, Tzadik produced ZAKARYA's second album, "Something Obvious".
August 2006 : Zakarya releases its third cd produced by Tzadik, " 413 A ", featuring the guitarist Marc RIBOT.

END OF 2008 : NEW RELEASE ON TZADIK

Thank you for being our friend. We hope you can make it to the theremin festival in Lippstadt. It's going to be a great time.


(If you have any theremin playing friends, don't forget to tell them about this - they won't want to miss it.

with all regards!

"arrival"

so parsimonious is the sound,
so delicate the eye
gazing into what it has not seen before.
and then, of course, the waiting
the hurried footsteps
the flung open door
the shout, and no more.
gone
without warning
there.
gone.
no more
and
though we survive forever, this process
will never embrace our knowing
never allow us past the membrane
to become one with the eternal ache
that does not happen.
