8Dio 2016 Stand Out Contest Submission- “So Long" By Zachary Horner

Just like how salt adds up taste to all food, that's how music tops our day with sweetness. I'm not a strongly-addicted listener, and I favor no specific genre of music, anything catchy would be ideal.

 My musical background is varied. I started studies in music theory and violin at the age of 8. At the age of eleven, I started with  guitar. I 'm a self-taught guitarist. One year later I started in  a school to study harmony and modern piano for six years. In 2006 I moved to Madrid to study visual production and sound.

I'm part of several bands which plays different styles: Rock, pop, heavy ...

My favourite music style  is classical music and rock. I do not think that both worlds need to be exclusionary.

My musical instrument is the piano. I spend my time playing it with complete devotion.

Some samples that can be heard on SoundCloud serve to show the variety that I can cover. I give special priority to  symphonic samples.
