Since the beginning, the newly born child in Turjey is plunged into a melodic universe. At birth, the "ezan" (call to prayer song) will be whispered in his right ear and will give the tune to his life that will be marked by singing.
Indeed, the childhood of the young Turk will be punctuated with a lullaby called "nini" . Then, when becoming an young adlult, the boys have the duty to perform military service. This is a crucial period for the young Turk who will officially mark his passage to adulthood. This is why the start that will engage the young into the military service is part of a ritual where songs have a very special place. Back from patriotic duty comes time to think of marriage and the search for a soul mate. Step by step the family will develop itself with usages illustrated by songs. Serkan Uyar revisits with tenderness and emotion this Turkish traditional songs repository that addresses these themes. The rhythm of the melody rocked by the vibrant and powerful voice of Serkan gradually reveals to us usages and traditions loaded with universal messages.
