TÖZ TRIO & HEZARFEN ENSEMBLE

International recognition, endless energy, always vibrant... Hezarfen Ensemble has signed many projects in which it has proven to be exceptionally flexible in adapting to different situations and conditions. From small chamber music ensembles to large orchestras; from integrations between different artistic fields ranging from electronics, literature and visual arts to dance, music theatre and live video; with contributions in many areas from interdisciplinary stage productions and intercultural initiatives to pedagogical and music-theoretical ventures, Hezarfen is radically transforming the contemporary music life in its native Turkey.

Consisting of Turkey’s experienced musicians Tamer Temel, Ercüment Orkut and Cem Aksel, Töz performs at the intersection of jazz and contemporary classical music. Tamer Temel composed all pieces (excluding the interludes) in the trio’s first album, which was released under the A.K. Music label. TÖZ invites their audiences to witness the musical exploration process in their performances which include individual or collective improvisations as well as written music. Töz Trio is preparing to record their second studio album which will be a collaboration with Hezarfen Ensemble, reaching a total of nine musicians. They will be performing their new music from the upcoming album for the first time at Borusan Music House.
