04/01/2016 Turkish Masters Welcomed to the Aga Khan Museum: Concert by Erkan Oğur and Ismail Hakkı Demircioğlu Central East $40 - $49


City of Toronto All Events http://ift.tt/21Gqy6z For over two decades, Erkan Oğur and Ismail Hakkı Demircioğlu have been interpreting the ancient songs of Anatolia using traditional musical instruments (saz, baglama lute) and modern ones (guitar). They have toured extensively in Turkey and abroad, and collaborated on two albums (Gülün Kokusu Vardı, 1998 and Anadolu Beşik, 2000). Their concert at the Aga Khan Museum will showcase new and previously released music that has its earliest origins in the 14th century. The performance is an exciting complement to the Aga Khan Museum's current exhibition A City Transformed: Images of Istanbul Then and Now. A themed dinner showcasing Turkish cuisine will be offered at Diwan, the Museum's restaurant headed by master chef Mark McEwan.
