Press Reviews "(Yeni Makam 1 is) very exotic, colorful, challenging."-The Double Reed"Yeni Makam 1 for solo bassoon was a striking departure from the typical recital fare....the impressionistic piece employs ancient Turkish modes, some utilizing intervals smaller than a half-step, to create some startingly modernsounds."-Chris Shull, The Wichita Eagle"Occassionally one can find music that isolates one technique so as to facilitate concentrating on it...Each (movement of Yeni Makam 2) is writtenin a different scale derived from Turkish folk music and containing one or more microtonally altered notes. The music itself is relatively simple and so the novel pitches are thrown into high relief."-STRINGS Magazine"This (Yeni Makam 4) is an excellent collection and is worthy of consideration for those wishing to add an international flavor to a recital or chamber music program." -Percussive Notes
