#discovermusic / #nowplaying : Turkish jazz guitarist Önder Focan’s latest release
“Aubergine / Patlican”.
London Jazz News : (the album is) a joyous, fun celebration of music, friendship and
conversation that best exemplifies the spirit of Mediterranean jazz
In 1998, Önder became the first Turkish jazz musician to have an album on Blue Note
with the release of his “Beneath The Stars”. He and his wife founded Istanbul’s Nardis
Jazz Club in 2002 - Nardis referring to a Miles Davis composition.
Jazz Times USA (on Önder’s playing) : warm-toned, richly ornamental style alternately recalls Kenny Burrell and Larry Coryell, swung tastefully and insistently.
