Jose Zarzo studied at The Hague Royal Conservatory...In 1984 he was named principal horn with the Amsterdam Sinfornietta. He remained with this Orchestra until 1989, when he became principle horn with the Gran Canaria Phiharmonic Orchestra in Spain, a position he still holds. With this Orchestra he has toured to the main cities of Spain, Germany, France, Slovakia, Switzerland, Austria, China, and Japan.
"Jose Zarzo plays with admirable distinction throughout the recital. His tone is consistently attractive, compact, and evenly produced, regardless of dynamics. Zarzo also calls upon a broad range of instrumental colors. His passagework is precise, and keenly articulated. Pianist Juan Francisco Parra and violinist Carlos Parra are accomplished, sympathetic collaborators (as is Koumans in the live concert)." Fanfare Magazine, Mar/Apr 2024, Ken Meltzer
