Yeni Gayda + Merve Salgar

About this event

Concert / residency outing. Yeni Gayda explores a hypnotic groove and Oriental psychedelia rooted in Turkish, Greek and Kurdish music and the landscapes of Anatolia. For this new creation, the group invites Turkish musician Merve Salgar, who revisits Ottoman music through a personal, free and inspired approach. The repertoire is mainly drawn from popular tradition and arranged through rock and experimental music. Line-up: Léa Maquart (Turkish kaval, ney, backing vocals), Olivier Koundouno (cello, backing vocals), Nicolas Poisson (vocals, saz, electronic device), Guilhem Meier (drums, backing vocals), and Merve Salgar (vocals, tânbur).
