Help me to make my new EP

The Project

Embark on a musical journey with us as I introduce 'Harmonious Reflections,' a captivating project that blends diverse genres and talents into a harmonious symphony. To bridge the remaining gap and make this dream a reality, I am launching a GoFundMe campaign, seeking £2,000 in crucial funding.

Your support is pivotal in covering various essential aspects of 'Harmonious Reflections.' From the intricate arrangements and musician recording fees to studio rentals, promotional materials, and the indispensable mixing and mastering services, every pound contributed plays a key role in ensuring the project's success.

Our journey kicks off on March 1st, delving into composition arrangements. As both producer and oud player, I am surrounded by a talented ensemble each bringing their unique flair to the project. In April 2024, crucial rehearsals and recording at a renowned studio in London. Post-recording, the meticulous mixing and mastering process begins in April, and the EP's official release is on June 1st, 2024.

Your support is not merely a donation; it is an investment in the transformative power of music. 'Harmonious Reflections' promises personal and artistic growth, expanding technical skills and pushing the boundaries of artistic capabilities. This project is a career-defining endeavor, introducing an oud and an electric oud and marking the beginning of an exciting series of upcoming projects. By contributing, you are not just supporting the arts; you are celebrating cultural diversity and fostering artistic collaboration.

As I embark on this musical odyssey, I invite you to be a part of the 'Harmonious Reflections' family. Your contribution, no matter the size, is instrumental in creating something truly remarkable. Thank you for considering joining us on this journey, where every note reflects the power of unity in music.

About Me

My name is Baha Yetkin. I was born and raised in Istanbul, a city that unites two continents and blends European and Middle Eastern musical cultures. Today, I proudly stand as the only Turkish Oud artist and Ottoman/Turkish classical music teacher and expert in the UK. I have dedicated 23 years of my life to this beautiful craft, with the last 8 years being right here in London, UK. During my musical journey, I had the privilege of studying Ottoman/Turkish music with esteemed masters in Istanbul. Their mentorship and recommendations have been invaluable to me. I've performed in over 3000 concerts, musicals, and festivals, both locally and internationally. From CRR Istanbul, Gongora Theatre Cordoba, Vortex London, to the prestigious Royal Albert Hall and to Broadway's "The Band's Visit" in West End London. I've also released three singles and two albums featuring collaborations with master artists.
