The Janissary - Epic Symphony

You can buy the individual songs of this as well as more of my work here: faryafaraji.bandcamp.com/albu...
Music composed and/or arranged by Farya Faraji. More info with all the lyrics in the pinned comment below. With this, I wanted to tell the life of a Janissary soldier through the musical styles representative of a Janissary’s life, from Balkanic music to Anatolian rhythms, Alevi songs, Ottoman Classical music and more. Some of the compositions are entirely mine, others are my arrangements of folk music or existing melodic patterns from these regions. Many thanks to Dimitris Athanasopoulos of the One Man’s Noise channel for providing the direction and vocals for the Epirotic text we brought to life here. Female vocals by Sumru Ağıryüyrüyen.
