 With SAKINA & ANATOLIA QUARTET five brilliant musicians bond instilling a new musical experiment, making the sounds of Mesopotamia accessible for western ears. Discription 
SAKINA & ANADOLU QUARTET take their audience on a journey into ancient and new Mesopotamia. The quintet revives with sensitivity and poignancy new worlds of sound from their region. In their creative process, traditional ballads and classical music meet, thus merging Occident and Orient and empowering space for free improvisation. Thereby they emote a musical bridge embracing traditional with modernity; virtuous, uncompromising, expanding new intuitions. With SAKINA & ANATOLIA QUARTET five brilliant musicians bond instilling a new musical experiment, making the sounds of Mesopotamia accessible for western ears.
