Traveling across Europe from his base in Amsterdam, the bass clarinet virtuoso Oğuz Büyükberber and Berlin-based guitarist Marc Sinan will be sharing the stage for the first time in Istanbul. Though coming from different musical backgrounds, the two music masters, meet on the natural reflection of contemporary and traditional elements into their music. The duo has come together in various projects in their career. Featured in Marc Sinan’s “Hasretim” album, which was released in 2013 through the key jazz label company, ECM, Oğuz Büyükberber has dozens of albums, performing either as a soloist or guest musician. Adding an electronic support to the graphical roadmap that they use in their compositions and improvisations; this duo will be taking their new repertoire to the stage at the festival.
