Ziya Aytekin is a Turkish musician, living in Sweden and with a large part
of Northwestern Europe as his field of activity. A living legend among
emigrants from the Near East in Sweden, Norway, Denmark, Germany, France
and other countries, Ziya is almost unknown to a wider audience.
Here Ziya presents his music - exactly as he wants it! He plays all
instruments himself and he has also made most of them: the reed instruments
zurna, mey and tulum; the flutes ney and kaval; the rythm instruments
darbuka, davul, bongos, def, tamburin and zil. Also the tunes are Ziyas,
either he composed them himself or picked them up along the long road that
took him from his home town Savsat on the southern slopes of Caucasus, in
Northeastern Turkey, via Trabzon and Istanbul, to Alby, Stockholm, Sweden.
Meet Ziya at his best; energic and powerful in rythmical dance tunes -
lyrical and full of fantasy in fluid improvisations!
