Hicazkar saz semaisi
phaedon
Inspired by a gorgeous recording on a wax cylinder by the composer, Tanburi Cemil Bey (1873-1916).
Performed on politiki lyra (classic kemençe), a small bowed fiddle from Istanbul.
Recorded at The Banff Centre, November 2008.
Thanks to Bethan, or I wouldn't have known about this. Beautifully played. Have you got any more music?
This has stopped me in my tracks, came rushing in to see who it is. Gloriously beautiful.
Bravo Phaedon! I enjoyed it till the end. Just a bedir was missing. Nice playing. Keep it posting such nice music. Maybe, Cemil Bey's kurdilihicazkar? It's my favorite.
A beautiful track...it felt as if there were meloncholy undertones...but I enjoyed listening all the same.
Ooh...very nice.
