Live, whether sharing the stage with American jazz or traditional Turkish musicians, Barbaros Erkose embraces and incites the audience with the vitality and passion of Turkish and Gypsy music. He balances out the great celebratory joy of Gypsy music with the melancholy of jazz, euphoria with a touch of the blues.
While his passion makes his performances more than energetic enough to keep hips swaying in bacchanalian celebration, his finesse and subtlety makes him capable of holding a concert hall enthralled. Though his roots are Turkish and Rom, Erkose is a citizen of the world and his music speaks a language that captivates people of all cultures.
