In the Footsteps of Bartók, in Anatolia
An show of arts based on Bartok’s Turkish and Hungarian researches
Béla Bartók arrived in Turkey in the autumn of 1936, spending a short time first in Istanbul and then in Ankara, and then, traveled Turkey with Adnan Saygun. His collection in Turkey made him even more convinced that by understanding the relationship between Hungarian and Turkish peasant music, a more accurate view of the nature of the common history of the two peoples was possible.
This show, dedicated to Bartók's legacy, brings in play many arts, and reflects not only on the folk music of different ethnicities and their interactions, but also on the connections between diverse dance traditions and material cultures. The show brings together many disciplines such as dance, music and ballet.
