Hi all! I want to share this quick video with all of you about our traditional music.

Posted by: Cosmin Lupu Nov 14 2013, 10:32 AM

Soulful and amazing playing my friend! You finally posted something of this kind Thank you!

Sorry for the delay Cosmin, I am a bit busy nowadays. I am happy that you enjoy it As far as I remember I use microtonal bends in the vchat a lot but in this video there is less.

Posted by: Cosmin Lupu Nov 14 2013, 12:14 PM

Well, yes indeed Use more in the next one - you can actually record the piece you played in the v-chat

Was really cool to hear traditional music from your country It sounds great and I liked your playing.

Why I don't see your name between participants for "Day and Night" collab? I hope you will join in this collab my friend
We must join forces and make this collab more huge than last

That's cool stuff! Are there any lesson resources here which would relate to this kind of use of microtonal/exotic scales?

bahadirpeker - I had the privilege of jamming with the son of Yavuz Cetin recently!! Both father and son definitely share some awesome talent.

It's just the truth man Now, don't keep a hungry man starving and show me the other recording

Posted by: bahadirpeker Nov 16 2013, 10:01 AM

I am not sure if there is any lesson resource about these, but may be instructors can help. You mean Yavuzcan Cetin? and where?

Posted by: SixStringSamurai Nov 16 2013, 07:10 PM

Yup, Yavuzcan Cetin! He is here in New Zealand currently, I met him through my Turkish workmate who is also a musician

Who's this guy that you and Ed are talking about?

Posted by: bahadirpeker Nov 17 2013, 08:46 PM

Oh that's good! While I was an instructor in a music academy in Istanbul, Turkey, we studied with Yavuzcan about 1 month and he was really good at that time, it was nearly 4 years ago. Cosmin, we are talking about the son of Yavuz Cetin who was a good musician in our country in rock-blues guitar music. Yavuz Cetin is still a very famous musician in our country.

Cosmin, here's one of my favourite songs of his.



Awesome guitarist, and he's got some really heartfelt slower blues songs too - and I don't even understand Turkish!

Posted by: Cosmin Lupu Nov 19 2013, 11:13 AM

Great playing, although I can't understand a word he's saying... Bahadir - can you recommend some more Turkish instrumentalists that play stuff oriented towards traditional music?

Posted by: bahadirpeker Nov 19 2013, 01:25 PM

Sure Cosmin! I'm a big fan of Sarp Maden. Here is the link about his playing, http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JO4vn4pJWa4
