Anatolian Psychedelic Rock Ensemble

OPEN TO THE PUBLIC | Come see the final performance of Joe Alpar's ensemble class: Anatolian Rock Ensemble: Psychedelia and Social Change in Modern Turkey. Anatolian rock music is a fusion of Turkish folk music and western rock instrumentation and amplification. The band will transport you to Turkey in the 1970s and early 1980s with a program of classic songs by some of the iconic performers of Anatolian Rock, featuring distorted lutes, fuzzy guitars, swirling electronic effects, driving percussion, and wailing vocals in Turkish and Kurdish. Hope to see you at this memorable night of music, visuals, and dancing!
