TAKSIM TRIO
Hüsnü Şenlendirici-clarinet, İsmail Tunçbilek-baglama, Aytaç Doğan-kanun
Three famous virtuosos of Turkish music join forces in breathtaking ‘taksims’, improvisations containing aspects of Ottoman classical music, Anatolian gipsy music, blues, raga and flamenco. ‘The improvisations veer between melancholy and eerie beauty… these three musicians are fabulous at listening to each other and are on the same level with their timing, intonation and dynamics’ (Het Parool).
