Berk Recital Hall

The collaboration between Sedef Erçetin and Tahir Aydoğdu, which blends the cello and kanun, represents a rare effort to unify Turkish classical music with Western classical traditions. In this master class, the kanun—traditionally the centerpiece of Turkish classical and folk music—transcends its roots to perform an extraordinary repertoire alongside the cello.
