TURKEY - Ahmet Baysal: Tel ve Ten

Tel ve Ten is the debut album by Ozan Baysal. The traditional Anatolian bağlama style, şelpe, is known for its hand-playing techniques such as parmak vurma, tel çekme and pençe. However, its evolving contemporary sounds have led to significant adjustments in the instrument’s design, most notably the creation of the double-necked bağlama. Ozan Baysal showcases the diverse sounds of this modified instrument through improvisations, original compositions and arrangements of traditional Anatolian melodies.
