AnatoliaEnsemble, is a musical ensemble, which reflects forty years of an artist’s -İhsan Özgen’s-work and musical outlook. The artistic atmosphere, which is a mosaic of different musical genres-stemming from one another and having differences in the east and west has influenced the performance of the general director and members of the group.
Different music genres which came existance and grew in Anatolia are the basis of Anatolia Ensemble. It was influenced by the fact that people who have migrated from the Central Asia bringing in their penthatonic music, combined their own music with those from Iran, Arabic countries, Byzantine, Balkan, the Aegean and the Mediterranean, which resulted in new genres.
