The heritage that unites us: traditional music from Turkey and Greece
In the atelier, Sofia and Çiğdem will work on beautiful songs from Turkey and Greece that talk about love, the joy of life, the pain of migration … each song corresponding to a dance! Follow the dance steps of tradition and explore the spicy flavours of the Eastern Mediterranean!
