He is accompanied by Belgian percussionist Robbe Kieckens on tombak and bendir.

Press

“The music is intimate and of breathtaking beauty, with Türkan often sitting alone playing and everyone around him seeming to hold their breath. The accompaniment is understated and just right. Classical music from Istanbul, timeless and captured forever. An album to cherish.”  Moorsmagazine (NL)
