Metin Yilmaz Kaval/Bilur & Damian Wright (Flamenco Guitar) – Thursday, 26th of October 2023:
“A meeting of two distinct yet strongly rooted cultural and musical traditions. Kurdish Dengbej (Troubadour) influences improvised with meditative sounds of Kaval will dance with the sounds of captivating Flamenco guitar.
ARIA-nominated flamenco guitarist Damian Wright (Bandaluzia) and Kaval/ Bilur player Metin Yilmaz (Kurdish/Turkey) bring their unique styles and deep musical experiences together with their own compositions, alongside expressive improvisations as well as Makams (musical scale from East) and melodies from Anatolia.”
“Damian Wright is a brilliant flamenco guitarist…Wright showed what a captivating solo player he is on his own “In Time”, and elsewhere his articulation of complex lines was fluid and dripping with conviction” – Sydney Morning Herald.
