An Evening with Yildiray Gurgen Part 1: The Genius Behind the Music of Siyah Beyaz Ask

If you’re like me, half of the pleasure from watching a movie or a series comes from hearing the musical score in the background. This music sets the mood, it introduces the characters, and it clues you into what will happen next. Anyone who’s cringed at the music in a B grade movie will understand what I mean about the importance of an appropriate score. Over the past couple of years, since I’ve become familiar with Turkish dizi’s, I’ve discovered that some of the most beautiful compositions I have heard are by Turkish musicians.

“As is Season 1, Season 2 is unapologetically focused on human emotions and relationships. It’s a modern-day comedy-drama, interestingly set against the backdrop of historical perspectives, with a storyline that explores essential themes of love, friendship, childbirth, marriage, parenthood, and unresolved traumas inherited from ancestors.”

A great sequel that will come back with Season 3 next year, @nuranevrensit outdoes herself with the soulful script. @burcu.alptekin and @erdem.tepegoz directorial vision leaves an impression. In this review by Michele Calderon @micmd2503 one gets the details of why Another Self remains a compelling watch.

“Kızıl Goncalar is a thought-provoking series that compels the viewers to learn more about the political, spiritual, economic and social history of the country.”

An excellent series that will come back with Season 2 on September 30. For those of you who haven’t watched, we hope this piece by @soul_phoems on North America TEN website will entice you to do so.
