Free Music Notes for The Wedding and the Funeral
Free Music Review: Great album!
Hit: 5 Stars
I read some of the reviews for this album, unfortunately saw many of them is far from talking about the album, instead mentions to the 'clyche' stereotypings such as the Turks do not like this album, because of the cultural&historical things with the Balkans.-Ridiculous. The other thing, for some reason that I don't understand, 'Dugun ve Cenaze'-Wedding and Funeral is compared with another album, 'Tango'(Bregovic), which has completely different genre than this album. Sezen Aksu's album is not an international aimed album. Well, the music has no boundries of course, but all the songs in this album are in Turkish, the album is a 'Turkish pop'. The album is successful, and beautiful because it combines the eastern european and turkish instruments well, and gives you a enjoyable music. In Bregovic's Tango, most songs do not have lyrics, it is more like an alternative, a background music. I also saw in some of the reviews that Sezen Aksu is compared with Cesaria Evora, and others. Don't do it! These singers all have great voices, so it is nonsense to do comparision between them, say that one is better than the other. Each have different taste.
Lastly: This is one of my most favourite 'Sezen Aksu' album. Her voice, the instruments(balkan and traditional ottoman turkish), and the songs create a powerful music joy. I highly recommend this album to any one who wills to listen to a quality music. Enjoy!
