Turkish Music Concert in Central Park
Summerstage in Central Park
The countdown has started for this weekend’s Turkish music concert at Central Park Summerstage. The concert, which the Turkish American community has been looking forward to after last year’s successful first concert, will start at 3:00 pm on Saturday, July 3rd and will feature some famous singers and bands from Turkey, including Kenan Dogulu, Duman, Ilhan Ersahin and Sukriye Tutkun. Last year’s concert was a huge success with close to 7,000 Turkish music fans and most people sang with Mazhar Fuat Ozkan for hours despite the pouring rain.
Istanbulive II, the official name of this year’s concert organization, presented by Serdar Ilhan and Mehmet Dede, is intended to bring the sounds and colors of Istanbul, the 2010 European Capital of Culture, and Turkey to New York.
