Kudsi Erguner - La Mélancolie Royale - Méditation Soufie '2019

Tracks list

Kudsi Erguner has been playing the ney (reed flute) masterfully for 40 years,
introducing the sentimental tones to Turkish and international audiences. 

Considered today one of the Masters of traditional Mevlevi Sufi Music, Kudsi
Erguner has been from his very young age in touch with the authentic, century
old tradition of Ottoman music. During the nearly half century of his career, he
has always worked on keeping the tradition of academic Ottoman and Sufi music to
preserve musical styles more and more forgotten with the modernisation of the
country. For his concert in the Umsiyat Concert Series, Kudsi Erguner will first
present to the public the traditional Whirling Dervishes Ceremony. Confirmed one
of the Masterpieces of the Oral and Intangible Heritage of Humanity, the ritual
includes prayers and poetry, music and dancing and represents a mystical journey
to find perfection through the abandoning of the ego. To display the very
modernity of the Ottoman performance culture, the Derwishes Ceremony will be
followed by Kudsi Erguner’s Islam Blues creation, displaying the many
Islamic patterns of today’s blues music.
