Şefika Kutluer - Türk İran Dostluk Konseri "Çocuklar Ölmesin"

About this event

Flautist Şefika Kutluer gives a Turkish-Iranian friendship concert at CSO Ada Ankara on Monday 30 November 2026 at 20:00 in the Bankkart Mavi Salon. The concert is part of the 17th International Şefika Kutluer Festival, whose theme this year is "East Meets West" ("Doğu Batı ile Buluşuyor"). The evening carries the message "Çocuklar Ölmesin" ("Let the Children Not Die"). According to the venue, Kutluer, an international performer and UNICEF Goodwill Ambassador, dedicates the concert to the memory of children who lost their lives in Iran, presenting music as a shared language of peace, friendship and humanity. Under the title "Kadim Medeniyetin Sesi" ("The Voice of an Ancient Civilisation"), Kutluer, often called the "Magic Flute", plays alongside traditional instrumentalists coming from Iran. The programme brings together works that trace the centuries-old links between Turkish and Iranian music, with her flute accompanied by tar, santur, kanun, oud and bendir (frame drum), building a musical bridge between Anatolian and Iranian traditions. The Bankkart Mavi Salon is one of three performance spaces at CSO Ada Ankara on Talatpaşa Bulvarı in the Opera quarter of Altındağ, alongside the Ziraat Bankası Ana Salon and the Tarihi Salon. Practical notes: the venue reserves the right to change times, dates, halls and programmes, and asks audiences to arrive early because of busy car park and hall entrances. Tickets are sold through Biletinial, linked from the CSO Ada Ankara event page.
