Musicians who made Turkey’s flamenco history
These interviews have been made for
Flamencoturco.com site.
It is not long time passed since flamenco spread out
from Spain, while for Turkey it is a very new art style. Flamenco history in
Turkey consists of only of life stories of a few pioneers. Understanding
flamenco in Turkey depends on knowing these masters. With the interviews below
we will have the chance both to learn their lives and to witness the
improvement of flamenco in Turkey. Hope you read with pleasure.
