Şirin Pancaroğlu
Praised by the Washington Post as a “major talent of international caliber”, for Şirin Pancaroğlu, discovering a variety of musical identities for the harp is a central endeavor. Trained as a classical musician, the leading harpist of Turkey is equally active in the realm of Turkish traditional music, improvisation, electronic music, tango and semi-staged performances as she is in mainstream harp repertoire to which she contributes with new works commissioned for her. Regular collaborations with performers and composers of diverse backgrounds have led Pancaroğlu to cross boundaries between musical styles often resulting in music that has been perceived as opening the path to new genres.
Barokarp features a number of transcriptions of baroque music, some of which are my own, along with an original work for the harp, C.P.E. Bach’s Sonata for Harp. Works by Francisque, Scarlatti, Frescobaldi, Bach, Loeillet, C.P.E. Bach and two traditionals (Greensleeves ve Coventry Carol).
