Echoes of the Silk Road is a distinctive musical collaboration between three talented female artists from South Korea and Turkey. By blending elements of Korean, Turkish, Western Classical, and jazz music, the ensemble creates a unique sound that draws on the diverse traditions along the Silk Road. The project offers a modern interpretation of this rich cultural exchange, bringing together musical influences from different regions and eras.

The ensemble’s repertoire is characterized by a profound exploration of musical modalities, the expressive depth of Korean and jazz vocal techniques, and the intricate rhythms found within their respective traditions. Through a combination of improvisation and original compositions, Echoes of the Silk Road  crafts musical dialogues that invite listeners to engage with the unspoken narratives embedded within each piece, encouraging reflection and personal interpretation.

This project premiered on May 28th, 2023, at the Music Meeting Festival.
