(Jazz Vocalist & Recording Artist)
Jazz
Jazz is a music genre that originated in the African-American communities of New Orleans, Louisiana, in the late 19th and early 20th centuries. Its roots are in blues, ragtime, European harmony, African rhythmic rituals, spirituals, hymns, marches, vaudeville song, and dance music. Since the 1920s Jazz Age, it has been recognized as a major form of musical expression in traditional and popular music. Jazz is characterized by swing and blue notes, complex chords, call and response vocals, polyrhythms and improvisation.

Today, Zara carries forward that tradition as a lecturer, teacher, and composer. She is the creator of a unique jazz vocal program at the Tchaikovsky Special School, where she educates and inspires many young students in the vocal department. Zara is also the founder of two musical groups, The Lightning Band and DFlex Band.
With The Lightning Band, she released her first album, Jazz With Me. With both ensembles, she has performed across many countries, bringing her artistry to international audiences. Her versatility has also led her to television, where she has served as head of the musical division in several shows, curating and performing outstanding live numbers with her bands.
From her early years, Zaras talent was evidentearning Grand Prix, first, and second prizes in numerous competitions and festivals. Alongside her musical path, she also pursued higher education in the field of law, though she admits she never intends to practice it professionally.
