Story for Symphony of Voices from Turkish Lands
The International Organization of Turkic Culture TURKSOY proudly presents the celebrated Turkish composer Ahmed Adnan Saygun's (1907-1991) magnum opus "Yunus Emre Oratorio". Turkish modes and folk melodies are both incorporated into Saygun's masterful oratorio, which was inspired by the thirteenth-century Turkish poet Yunus Emre. Yunus Emre's poetry frequently featured the themes of divine love, human destiny, and international humanism; these themes are echoed in the music of the oratorio.
