NYC: BURAK BEDIKYAN NEW YORK QUARTET
Burak Bedikyan New York Quartet (Burak Bedikyan - piano;;Loren Stillman - soprano & alto saxophones; Ugonna Okegwo - bass; Donald Edwards - drums) performs at THE METROPOLITAN ROOM(34 West 22nd Street, NYC - 212-206-0440) on Saturday, November 28th at 1:00 pm. A native of Istanbul, Burak Bedikyan is one of the foremost piano players of his native country as a leader and a highly sought after sideman for a variety of American and European Jazz artists thanks to his musicality and stylistic versatility. A true improvisational triple threat finds Bedikyan performing, recording and teaching across the globe. Bedikyan became interested in Jazz during high school with the commitment and passion to pursue a career as a professional musician. Formal music education began in 1996 with distinguished Turkish pianist & composer Aydin Esen where studies included modern harmony and jazz improvisation. While studying improvisational music, the pianist began explanding his harmonic base playing pop and rock gigs accompanying some of the leading popular figures of Turkey. In 2002 Burak Bedikyan received a full merit-based scholarship of music performance from the "Istanbul Bilgi University Jazz Department" and heads began turning in his direction from the Turkish jazz scene when he started playing primarily with his professors and later on with international visiting artists. Bedikyan recorded his debut album "Circle of Life" in 2012 in NY with internationally acclaimed artists; Chris Potter, Peter Washington and Bill Stewart. Published worldwide in 2013 by the prestigious record label SteepleChase Records, "Circle of Life" received positive feedback on the international arena from critics, journalists, as well as fans. January 2015 gave birth to the pianist's second album as a leader. "Leap of Faith" featuring another all American line up including jazz greats Chris Cheek, Ron McClure and Billy Drummond. As in his first album, Bedikyan presented a set of original compositions rooted with the American jazz tradition but embracing his European influences as well as his Turkish/ Armenian heritage. Burak Bedikyan New York Quartet is the artist's latest project presenting a set of freshly written originals featuring a band of the highest caliber NY based musicians. There is a $24 cover plus a 2-drink minimum.
