The renowned Turkish jazz guitarist Önder Foçan is known for interpreting Turkish compositions within the discipline of jazz, improvising on the form and harmony of songs while remaining as faithful to the local melodies as possible. Foçan recorded this album with the singer Meltem Ege – who is a regular on the Turkish jazz circuit – in 2012. The repertoire consists of Foçan’s arrangements of jazz standards with his own vocal and instrumental compositions, which are performed in trio, quartet, quintet and sextet formations. Foçan’s troupe of trusty session musicians joins him on the recording: Şenova Ülker (trumpet), Ozan Musluoğlu (bass), Bulut Gülen (tambourine) and Ferit Odman (drums).
