Turkish guitarist/composer Timuçin Sahin moved to the Netherlands in 1992. With the album On The Line (with Oene van Geel and Albert van Veenendaal) he won the Dutch Jazz Competition in 2001. For his new group Sahin invited Randy Brecker (a.o. Blood, Sweat & Tears, Horace Silver, The Brecker Brothers, numerous studio sessions). ‘With a voracious musical appetite that includes African, Indian and more traditional western jazz and contemporary classical music, Sahin has fashioned a sound that is an intriguing blend.’ (All About Jazz). ‘Sahin has chops galore yet remains tastefully restrained, a gritty fusion player.’ (Jazzwise).
