A NEW ALBUM IN PREPARATION
The most recent album of my discography, details of which you will find on the site, dates from 2011.
It is titled Dila Dila and I recorded it with my musicians at the time in Istanbul. The years that followed were those of great upheaval in my life and, while I was able to create other groups, play with other musicians, and write and compose many new songs, I have not been so far. ‘to push the door of a studio to record a new album. It will be done this year.
I can’t wait to let you listen to all this music, the arrangements of which I have entrusted to Ersin Ersavaş, who will also play the lute and several other instruments. Bilgin Canaz will play the ney and Gürkan Özkan, the tablas. Ersin immediately and naturally found the sounds, the harmonies, the atmospheres that were spinning in my head like meteors. It is not enough to be an experienced musician to finally be able to truly and fully hear what is there, in us,
hidden, wild. We must be able to appease our creative desire.
This music, these songs, they had been in me for a very long time for many of them. They will finally see the light of day and I am very happy. They will be like so many constellations in a sky where we can all find a little, and sometimes even a lot, of what weaves and animates our life. I will tell you more soon here, on this blog, and each time you will know a little more about the conception and the realization of this album: its music, the musicians who interpret it, the inspiration of its themes, melodies and lyrics.
We will share it all!
