Delicia Turca
Este miercoles pasado, asisti un concierto maravilloso y gratis en Jordan Hall del Conservatorio Nueva Inglaterra -- "Lale ve Kilic/El Tulipan y La Espada" por El Conjunto DUNYA Ince Saz, El Mehterhane Nueva Inglaterra de Tambor y Viento, y MAVI BAILE. Habia muchos instrumentos hermosos y ritmos raros y apasionante que nunca he visto o oido. Para mi, escuchar a esta musica era como entrar una dimension inexplorada. Cem Mutlu y Engin Gunaydin atravesaron los contornos vibrantes con precision, claridad y vitalidad. El cantante (y el lider del grupo, Mehmet Ali Sanlikol, tenia una voz suntuosa que recorria por las notas (incluso tonos que cayeron entre esos que estoy acostumbrada a oir) muy expresivamente. Habia varios momentos cuando las caras de los musicos se iluminaron con alegria exuberante, especialmente mientras que el clarinetista, Mal Barsamian, tocaba con brillantez y energia. El set final era extremadamente impresionante; evoco un procesion magnifico y majestuoso. El grupo que organizo este concierto tiene un sitio web con noticias de conciertos futuros: http://www.dunyainc.org/. Disfrutalos!
This past Wednesday, I attended a marvelous and free concert at Jordan Hall of New England Conservatory -- "Lale ve Kilic/The Tulip and the Sword" by the DUNYA Ince Saz Ensemble, the New England Drum and Winds Mehterhane and MAVI DANCE. There were many beautiful instruments and unusual and riveting rhythms which I have never seen or heard. For me, to listen to this music was like entering an unexplored dimension. Cem Mutlu and Engin Gunaydin traversed the vibrant contours with precision, clarity and vitality. The singer (and the leader of the group) Mehmet Ali Sanlikol, had an sumptuous voice that traveled across the notes (including tones that fell between those I am used to hearing) with brilliance and energy. The final set was extremely impressive; it evoked a magnificent and majestic procession. The group that organized this concert has a website with news of future concerts: http://www.dunyainc.org/. Enjoy them!
