Late Night Jazz: Gülseven Medar Quartet

Gülseven Medar, a talented vocalist, specializes in Kurdish and
Anatolian folk music, honoring their traditional roots while blending elements
of jazz fusion and global music. Influenced by Kurdish and Alevi cultures, she
also interprets Turkish and Armenian songs, collaborating with Turkish music
masters to record these repertoires.

Her diverse sound, enriched
by global influences, has made her a regular performer at international
festivals and folk operas. In 2023, she founded the Gülseven Medar
Quartet, combining folk, Alevi faith music, and jazz fusion, featuring
vocals, double bass, harp, and tenbur.

Joining her on stage will
be Imogen Emmett on harp, Orhan Bilge on
bağlama, and Ardashes Agoshian, a distinguished double bassist,
composer, music director, and conductor based in Amsterdam. With a
distinguished international career, including performances at the Amsterdam
Concertgebouw, Ardashes has garnered acclaim for his extensive musical repertoire
showcased on a global scale.

Vaak Records and Art Stage are Iranian
promoters based in London, dedicated to showcasing music from Persian-language
communities worldwide. They aim to create new international cultural
experiences by fostering collaboration between Iranian and international
