Kardeş Türküler (translated Songs of Fraternity) was conceived in 1993 as a series of concerts given by the music branch of the Folklore Club at Boğaziçi University in İstanbul, Turkey.
The diverse ethnic groups in this ancient part of the world initially gave cause for the concerts to have artists perform interpretations of Anatolian folksongs in Turkish, Arabic, Kurdish, Azerbaijani, Georgian and Armenian.
Under the auspices of the Boğaziçi Performing Arts Ensemble (BGST), formed in 1995, the program used the concert stage to advance the ideals of common ancestry and celebration of diversity as a foil to cultural polarization and ethnic tension.
Forthwith, the musical heritage of the Laz, Georgian, Circassian, Roma, Macedonian and Alevi cultures at all were incorporated into the program.
The scholarly collection and research of the diverse folklore tradition of the region is an important part of BGST’s activities, but Kardeş Türküler has been intent on forging its own music tradition as well.Wikipedia
Most people know this ensemble from their track on a Putumayo collection, but the rare beauty of the music is not revealed in one song. This set of Sephardic songs, arranged by Erkan Ogur (who also plays guitar and ud), is performed to subdued perfection by an ensemble of the Esims (vocals and guitar), Okay Temiz on percussion, Tarik Sezer (cello and keyboards) and Cem Ikiz on guitar. This is a 2005 reisue of the original 1989 recording, remastered and excellent.
