SINAFI TRIO (GR)
Saturday, August 3nd / Fengaros 2019
Sinafi Trio was created by three Greek musicians who met in Istanbul. Since 2014, they have been travelling together with their music luggage and carrying with them stories from the Café Aman and the meyhane of Istanbul: stories of exile, love, break-up, feast, from Anatolia, Aegean Sea, Greece and Turkey. They have performed in Turkey, Greece, Cyprus, Italy and in various festivals, music halls and meyhane. Sinafi Trio also have given workshops in Greece (Music Village) and Cyprus. Soon, their first album will be published through KALAN Music. The album’s starting point is the many different roles of women as they appear in the songs of wider Anatolia and the North Mediterranean. In this album, they have the honour of collaborating with renowned musicians from Greece and Turkey, including Uğur Önür, Apostolos Sideris, Şakir Ozan Uygan, Pantelis Stoikos, Alexandros Rizopoulos, Evi Kanellou and Christos Psomiadis. This year, the trio will participate on a collection of tributes to some of the most popular Turkish traditional songs (Türkü) that will be published by Kalan Music.
