Alejandro Jose Zamora Moya, professionally known as Zamora, was born on July 13, 1979, in Caracas, Venezuela. A self-taught virtuoso musician, Zamora is renowned for his skills as a pianist, keyboardist, composer, and singer. He is also recognized as a poet, evangelist, philosopher, philanthropist, politician, and writer. With expertise in computer systems and information technology, Zamora has made significant contributions to the world of instrumental and piano music, earning two GRAMMY® nominations for Best New Age Album with "Instrumental Oasis, Vol. 4" in 2010 and "Instrumental Oasis, Vol. 6" in 2011.

Zamora is celebrated as a national treasure in Venezuela and is considered one of the greatest composers of piano and instrumental music globally. His lineage includes notable figures such as General Ezequiel Zamora, a national hero who fought alongside Simón Bolívar for the independence of Venezuela, and Juan José Landaeta, co-composer of Venezuela's national anthem.

In addition to his musical achievements, Zamora has published several books, including "Thoughts, Proverbs, and Reflections," and has released numerous albums under his label, Z-Records. His work has been featured in compilations like "Sounds From The Circle." Zamora is also the founder and president of the Zamora Foundation, a nonprofit organization dedicated to helping people and children in need worldwide.

Zamora's unique approach to music includes mastering various instruments through his keyboard, orchestrating, and sequencing his compositions, all created with his Yamaha XS/XF 8 keyboard and Yamaha Grand Piano CFIIIS. He has also ventured into politics, running for the presidency of Venezuela in 2012 and 2018. Zamora currently resides in Los Angeles and Venezuela, continuing to influence the music world with his innovative compositions and philanthropic efforts.
