Plus, she’ll demonstrate the beautiful sounds of Turkish music.
Turkey’s music was shaped over the centuries with the influence of many civilizations, cultures, and traditions.
Given the country’s proximity to both Eastern and Western cultures, making Turkish music a rich combination of both cultures.
The music of Turkey includes diverse elements ranging from Central Asian folk music to influences from Byzantine music, Greek music, Ottoman music, Persian music, and Balkan music, as well as references to more modern European and American popular music.
Turkish-born and raised, Bengisu is a multi-genre violinist and singer, known for combining the music of her Turkish roots with Eastern-European and Middle Eastern traditions.
As a professionally renowned performer, Bengisu’s versatile playing has led her to share the stage with music icons including Mark O’Connor, Tigran Hamasyan, Aynur Dogan, Shreya Ghoshal, Toninho Horta, Shankar Mahadevan, Simon Shaheen, Amal Murkus, and Pablo Ziegler.
