Description
'Lunar' is the debut album by outstanding Turkish jazz guitarist Onur Aymergan and his quintet of equally outstanding musicians, all of whom have accredited performance credential across Europe and beyond.
Impeccable tonal harmony is the hall-mark of the quintet's unique sound, which even incorporates silence as one of its crucial elements. A central aspect of this tonal harmony is also Aymergen's intense care in assembling his compositions.
Turkey's relation with stringed instruments has a long line of folkloric musical tradition but its relation to the modern guitar has more to do with the emulations of the post-1945 born Western-centric generations, having a partially parallel evolution with jazz history. Starting with the 1950's a handful of passionate Turkish jazz guitar players had to develop their knowledge and experience solely by themselves and those who were lucky to go through with playing and observing jazz in the West, carried that information back to Turkey.
Onur Aymergen's debut may be a fresh new addition to the archive of Turkish jazz guitar albums, but it's also a carrier of the accumulation of a historical legacy to which he is a contributing force with his unique sound added to the fold.
