Jan Garbarek Group feat. Trilok Gurtu
December 4, 2026, at the Turkcell Stage of the Zorlu Performing Arts Center!
The legendary figure of European jazz, Norwegian saxophonist Jan Garbarek, is returning to Istanbul with his virtuosity and unique musical style. The special concert, featuring the renowned musicians Rainer Brüninghaus (piano), Yuri Daniel (bass), and the Indian percussion genius Trilok Gurtu, will take place on December 4, 2026, at the Zorlu PSM Turkcell Stage, organized by Stagepass, and will bring together music lovers.
Following his sold-out concert at the London Royal Festival Hall, critic Sarah Chaplin described Garbarek as follows: "Having been in this industry for over fifty years, Garbarek is as close to perfection as one can get. A master of silence and sound, he is a true virtuoso, both in his striking rhythmic figures and in the heartbreakingly beautiful expressions he creates."
Garbarek, with his albums released on ECM Records, including collaborations with Keith Jarrett such as "Belonging," "My Song," and the iconic "Officium," has etched his name in jazz history. With his unique approach that blends avant-garde jazz with Scandinavian melodies, modal structures, European folk influences, and contemporary world music, Garbarek holds a privileged position in jazz history. His crystal-clear saxophone tone, his profound yet simple expression, and the intense, meditative atmosphere he creates on stage make him a unique figure, not only for jazz enthusiasts but also for many music lovers open to cross-genre musical exploration.
Trilok Gurtu, who seamlessly blends Hindustani and Western musical traditions, is often described by critics as a "shamanic healer."
These four talented musicians, together, take the listener on a timeless and captivating journey.
