Described by the Washington Post as a "major talent of international caliber," Şirin Pancaroğlu is dedicated to discovering a variety of musical identities for the harp. Trained on the classical harp at the Geneva Conservatory and the Jacobs School of Music in Bloomington, she is as active in Turkish music, improvisation, contemporary music, tango, and semi-staged performances as she is in the classical harp repertoire.
Şirin's research into the historical Turkish-Ottoman harp, the çeng, has led to a deep association with traditional Turkish music. She first transcribed and arranged pieces from the traditional Turkish repertoire, and then began to compose harp music related to the tradition and beyond. She is the creator of "Turkish Harp", a project aimed at bringing Turkish music to harpists around the world, as well as the editor of "The Turkish Harp Music Collection". She is currently recording a series of pieces that will be included in a new album entitled "Alaim-i Sema" (Rainbow), consisting solely of her own music.

Which harp is being used for this concert? I must say which ever one it is it handles the depth of the scales used for Turkish music very well. Well done indeed.❤

[@sirinpancaroglu]

This is Atlantide Prestige I am playing on. My new harp, not even one year old yet.
