Pascal Zavaro

Pascal Zavaro (born 3 October 1959) is a French composer.

Life

Zavaro studied at the Conservatoire de Paris.

In his music, rhythmic thinking is predominant. The sources are very broad, from rock, Bartók, Stravinsky or some scores of Steve Reich, resulting in a very personal and innovative expression.
