Istanbulive @ Central Park SummerStage

Istanbulive: The Sounds & Colors of Turkey will bring together for the first time one of the largest-ever assemblies of musicians from Turkey on an American stage - five unprecedented hours of the most diverse and important music the nation has to offer. Concertgoers will also have the opportunity to sample vibrant Turkish culture and authentic Turkish food, as well as learn more about information on Turkey as a tourist destination. The day-long celebrations will feature the legendary Turkish folk-rock band Mazhar Fuat Özkan, emerging international pop stars Sertab Erener and Demir Demirkan of Painted on Water, the intricate Mediterranean gypsy music of Hüsnü Senlendirici & Vassilis Saleas with NY Gypsy All-Stars and the raucous world beat funk jams of special guests Brooklyn Funk Essentials alongside singer/songwriter Emre Yilmaz.
