Anatolian Heritage

Discover the fascinating sounds of Anatolia with our Zeybek Music and Performance
Workshop, a focus week dedicated to the rich musical heritage of the Zeybek repertoire.

This workshop offers students the chance to deepen their skills in timing, ensemble playing, instrumental techniques and understanding the Turkish makam, a complex modal system that defines much of Turkish traditional music.

During the week, students will immerse themselves in the rhythmic complexity and expressive melodies of Zeybek, enhance their ability to coordinate within an ensemble and develop a nuanced sense of makam tonality. This experience not only builds technical skills, but also broadens their appreciation of different musical traditions and approaches to performance.

By the end of the week, students will have gained practical insights into Zeybek music, enriched their musicality and gained a better understanding of the cultural depth of Anatolian musical heritage. Follow along to witness the results of their journey into this unique and powerful tradition!
