"Canan Sezgin-Geylan and Yahya Geylan return to Makam Nights following their sold-out performance in December. Expect instruments not widely played in Ontario: oud, kamanche, Turkish tanbur and yaylı tambur.

This intimate setting is a monthly gathering for the modal music community, providing a space for learning and sharing. No prior knowledge required!"

Makam Nights is an open space dedicated to sharing knowledge of makam music. Each session we will have different musicians join us in discussion and performance, so bring your curiosity, instruments and ideas to share! No limitations to instruments or training, we welcome experimentation and cross-cultural collaboration. This event is pay what you can, with no one turned away for lack of funds.
