Aynur

Soulful songs

The Kurdish singer Aynur has deep roots in the Alevi tradition, in which music plays an important role. Her songs explore themes such as identity and love, as well as pain and loss. With her international band she also seeks points of contact with western European styles. As a result, her expressive voice encounters Oriental flutes such as the kaval and ney, as well as classical piano, saxophone and drums.
