Kazancı Bedih ve Gazelhanları Anma Gecesi

الجمهور العام

A prolific musician and virtuoso, Bedih Yoluk, also known as Kazancı Bedih, was a leading figure in "gazel" singing, a traditional form of lyrical poetry in classical Ottoman literature, and a master of the "sıra gecesi" tradition, a cultural gathering rooted in southeastern Türkiye, particularly in the city of Urfa. This memorial concert, organized by the national public broadcaster of Türkiye and the Urfa Municipal Chorus, honors Kazancı Bedih alongside other esteemed gazel singers and sıra gecesi performers.
