Ilhan Ersahn’s Istanbul Sessions With Erik Truffaz Free-form jazz riffs that combine various strands of influence from New York’s East Village to Istanbul. This 4-piece jazz band consists of Ilhan Ersahn (half-Turkish) on saxophone, Erik Truffaz on trumpet, Alp Ersonmez on bass, Izzit Kizil on percussion and Turgut Alp Bekoglu on Drums. Try 1,2 and 8. 1. Freedom: Fast. Love the percussion and bass. 2. Bosphorous: Fast. You can hear & feel a bit of that Turkish influence in the music. Listen to the rythmic percussion. 3. Door: Slow and languid jam session between saxophone and trumpet. 4. Thomas O Malley: Starts slow and picks up pace & steam . 5. Sam I Am: Fast & rythmic. Love the percussion. 6. Istanbul: Short interlude that captures the flavor of Instanbul with snatches of conversation. 7.Kefal: Alternates between slow & mid-tempo. 8. Les Ottomon: Fast-paced. Nice, round sounds from the trumpet & sax. 9. The Dark Tunnels of Europe: Slow and short piece. 10. Alley Cats: Medium paced and the sounds of trumpet reminds you of a dark, haunted alley. 11.
