✨ Join us for a special performance by Turkish American guitarist and composer Dr. Celil Refik Kaya as he showcases his new album of guitar works. He has been recognized as a prizewinner in various international guitar competitions across Europe and the U.S.

This album features Kaya's 'Sonata No. 1,' characterized by a blend of stylistic influences from South and North American composers alongside jazz chord progressions. Additionally, Kaya’s Turkish heritage is beautifully expressed in his variations on the folk song 'Yavuz Geliyor Yavuz', which, like the 'Sketches', reflects the art and music that are deeply significant to the composer.
