Zelişah & Mustafa Konseri

Zelişah & Mustafa Concert.
Charmingly, coquettishly, both with music and with words... Zelişah & Mustafa are connecting with their audience. The duo, Zelişah & Mustafa, take their listeners on a delightful journey into the past, rediscovering and reinterpreting melodies hidden within the heart of Anatolia, bringing them to the present day. The pair preserves the tradition of call-and-response folk music between a woman and a man, and they view their repertoire as a "cultural transmission method" for carrying on this tradition. In their performances, the duo focuses on the verbal exchanges between women and men, and they also perform long songs, folk tunes, proverbs, improvisations, praise songs, and dance tunes. This journey, tracing the traces of love, flirtation, and mutual affection in folk melodies that stretch from the past to the present, is reshaped by Zelişah & Mustafa's unique sense of humor and their captivating stage presence. Zelişah - (Vocals, Duduk (a type of oboe), Tanbur (a long-necked stringed instrument), Tambourine) Mustafa Altınkaya - (Vocals, Divan Saz, Meydan Saz)
