ctrl LIVE: Korhan Futacı (TR)
Room 1 [Alternative Jazz]

Monday, November 17, Korhan Futacı invites you on a journey beyond time and space – and if you attended Gărâna Jazz Festival this year, you know what this experience is all about.

As soon as Korhan Futacı presses his lips to the saxophone’s mouthpiece, the ritual begins. During his concert, the prominent figure of Turkey’s alternative music scene will guide us from the chaos of Istanbul to an uncharted realm. A place filled with vitality but also darkness; fusing traditional Turkish music with free improvisations. With his brand new all-Turkish quartet, he draws us into an immersive musical universe that transcends time and place.

Renowned for his proficiency as a saxophonist, composer, producer, singer, and songwriter, he has become a prominent figure in Turkey’s alternative music scene.
Korhan Futacı has performed on countless stages; notably, as part of the free jazz group „Konstrukt” at Roskilde, Jazzfest Saalfelden, A’larme Festival. With his versatile artistic expression, he has collaborated with prominent musicians across genres, including avantgarde icon Peter Brötzmann, Marshall Allen of the jazz ensemble Sun Ra Arkestra, Thurston Moore of Sonic Youth, Ken Vandermark, William Parker.

–- “Korhan Futaci and his band from Istanbul played as if the city itself flowed through their veins. Their music drove and screamed, with ripping saxes, rousing bass and drums that made the blood beat faster.” JazzRadar –-
