Description

Celebrate Turkic music and culture with Turksoy Presents: Symphony of Voices from Turkic Lands. The International Organization of Turkic Culture TURKSOY proudly presents the celebrated Turkish composer Ahmed Adnan Saygun’s (1907-1991) magnum opus “Yunus Emre Oratorio.” Turkish modes and folk melodies are both incorporated into Saygun’s masterful oratorio, which was inspired by the thirteenth-century Turkish poet Yunus Emre. Yunus Emre’s poetry frequently featured the themes of divine love, human destiny, and international humanism; these themes are echoed in the music of the oratorio. Turksoy Presents: Symphony of Voices from Turkic Lands will be performed by the TURKSOY Symphony Orchestra, which is composed of 80 distinguished musicians from eight Turkic nations. The orchestra will be accompanied by the illustrious Jonathan Griffith Singers and conducted by Professor Rengim Gökmen. The Yunus Emre Oratorio has been translated into five languages and has been performed worldwide. It debuted in the United States in 1958 at the United Nations House, under the direction of conductor Leopold Stokowsi. The performance featured the Symphony of the Air Orchestra and Potsdam University Crane Chorus.
