SOLORAZAF grows up in Madagascar with his grandparents. At the age of seventeen, he is one of the first studio musicians in the Capital city of Tananarive. At Discomad Studio, the only recording studio on the main Island -- in a country where the music is as rich and vital as its flora and fauna -- Solorazaf plays guitar, bass and drums on countless recordings for different artists from the various regions across Madagascar. Self-taught, his studio experience and exposure to so many musicians and so much indigenous music not only gives him the tools to become one of the most important practitioners of the music, it allows him to create a wholly personal style steeped in the Malgache tradition. In 1979, he moves to Paris and quickly establishes himself as an in-demand accompanist and session player contributing to the music of many great French recording artists in various styles of Pop and World music . From 1998 , Solorazaf plays with the quartet “Worlds of Guitarâ€. The group includes guitar masters Fareed Haque, Romero Lubambo and Aquiles Baez. During this busy period, however, Solorazaf is also the lead guitarist for the legendary Miriam Makeba. Solorazaf travels the globe touring for 15 years with Makeba. The world tours include among others “Live the future†with Makeba and Dizzy Gillespie, “The Three Divas Tour†with Miriam Makeba, Nina Simone and Odetta as well as the “The USA Tour:Tour of Hope†with Hugh Masekela & Miriam Makeba. In 2001, Solorazaf begins touring his “Solo Guitar Performanceâ€. He plays Europe, the USA and Canada. His solo concerts are widely acclaimed in the USA and Europe and he establishes himself as one of the most innovative solo guitar player’s on the World scene."Peace Tralala" by solorazaf
