Guiding us through this musical journey in collaboration with the prestigious London Chamber Orchestra will be Tura’s son\, the outstanding composer and Principal Conductor of the Istanbul State Symphony Orchestra\, Hasan Niyazi Tura. The concert’s centrepiece\, a magnificent piano concerto\, will feature the pianist Pınar Çelik Warsi\, who will perform alongside the renowned London Chamber Orchestra.  \nYalçın Tura stands as a luminary among contemporary Turkish music composers. Tura’s musical journey includes film and stage compositions as well as teaching at the prestigious State Turkish Music Conservatory within Istanbul Technical University and publications on the Turkish music. His latest of many contributions to the world of music will be premiered for the first time during 100 Years of Turkish Republic Concert.
