Hüsnü Şenlendirici ve Trio Chios - Gel Gel Kayıkçı

"The Two Sides of the Aegean Sea" is a musical collaboration between artists from Greece and Turkey. Featuring Hüsnü Şenlendirici, one of Turkey's finest clarinetists and the Trio Chios, from the small island of Chios in Greece, the CD represents probably one of the best examples of how music-rather than politics- can bring cultures together. Not only that, the fact that, in the hands of accomplished artists of this caliber, each musical style is allowed to mingle and enhance the other, while at the same time, not losing any of its identity.

    1. I agree. I know you don't have a TV, let alone cable, but TRT has a channel called TRT M and I have heard quite a few very high quality musicians there.
