Concert | Musical Direction by Kudsi Erguner and Giannis Koutis
Building on a decade-long collaboration with Kudsi Erguner, artistic director of the advanced training project in Ottoman classical music Birûn, the Institute presents an event dedicated to interfaith dialogue.
Two choirs, Byzantine and Ottoman, have been invited to perform in Venice, accompanied on the ney flute by Kudsi Erguner himself. The repertoire includes significant Muslim and Eastern Orthodox Christian musical works, composed within the cosmopolitan context of Constantinople during the Ottoman period.
The event is held thanks to the contribution of the Fondation A.G. Leventis
