ŞIRIN PANCAROĞLU

For Şirin Pancaroğlu, discovering a variety of musical identities for the harp is a central endeavor. Trained as a classical harpist at the Geneva Conservatory and Indiana University Jacob’s School of Music, she is equally active in the realm of traditional Turkish music as she is in the mainstream harp repertoire. With concerts in over twenty countries, twelve album recordings and a multitude of collaborations to her credit, she has been sharing her musical roots with audiences, connecting the traditional to worldly ideas. Şirin’s work on unearthing the historical Turco-Ottoman harp called the “çeng” has earned her a unique place in harp history. Şirin is the creator of “The Turkish Harp”.
