Why we do it

Our vision

To foster Australian Turkish harmony through music and performing arts, promoting for future generations deep cultural connectedness and dialogue.

Our mission

Our mission is to cultivate cultural harmony and understanding through the fusion of Australian and Turkish musical traditions. By facilitating dynamic Orient-Occident encounters and collaborative workshops, celebrate unity, and promote dialogue through the universal language of music. Through our diverse range of activities, including performances, educational outreach, and artistic collaborations, we aim to inspire mutual respect, appreciation for cultural diversity, and a shared vision of peace and harmony. We incorporate Western instruments alongside traditional Turkish counterparts like the kaval, zurna, baglama, darbuka, tef, yayli tanbur, and kanun to craft a distinct blend of Australian and Turkish musical styles.
