Music represents freedom. It is everywhere just like the air we breathe, and as long as the universe exists, it cannot be destroyed, nor can its freedom be taken away... Because the power of the notes is stronger than anything you can ever imagine.
I wish artists, authors and thinkers in Turkey, my home country, could also be as free.
Last week I performed my version of *Fazil Say's Alla Turca Jazz (based on Mozart's Turkish March) on 50 pianos presented by the City of London Festival. This project represents my wishes for a more democratic and tolerant Turkey in which artists, writers and intellectuals can think and speak freely.
*Fazil Say is the most celebrated and revered Turkish pianist/composer who is sentenced for Twitter postings. Read more here:

Muzik hep ozgurdur... Hava gibi, su gibi heryerdedir, ve evren varoldugu surece yok edilemez. Ister sevin, ister sevmeyin, muzigi hapsedemezsiniz, cunku notalarin gucu herseyden daha ustundur.
Keske sanatcilarimiz, yazarlarimiz ve dusunurlerimiz de notalar gibi hur olabilseler...
Londra Sehir Festivali cercevesinde sokaklara koyulan 50 piyanoda Fazil Say tarafindan duzenlenmis Mozart'in Turk Marsi'ni hosgoru, demokrasi ve dusunce ozgurlugu icin tekrar yorumladim. Daha iyi bir gelecek icin ancak el ele verip birbirimizi desteklersek bu notalar gibi hur ve mutlu olabiliriz.
Hep birlikte daha olumlu gunlere,
Sevgiler,
AyseDeniz

[@phantomaq]

I think this is the version of YUja Wang (or at least, very similar)

[@NicolasOGordao]

it sounds like volodos's version of it

[@akanecortich8197]

Love the jazz version of an overplayed worn and weary piece. Puts some new life into it.

[@luizmiranda1950]

Concerning the conditions of the piano, I do not agree, but it is your opinion. My opinion is for my exclusive use, however I will declare it: I prefer pianos of good marks, beautiful, shining, extremely clean and working perfectly. I, in particular, do not see beauty in any kind of decay.

He was talking about the piece itself, not the piano ;/

Litterally out of tune

[@lucianahamond]

I have played in almost of them (50) in 2012. They did not sound like how you can listen to in this videos. But this idea was fantastic to play the same song in all of the street pianos in London and edit the videos. It is a London tour which integrates visual art , music and integration. I miss this experience so much. Congratulations for the pianist! This arrangement is also amazing! I would like to have the sheet music. By for now!

[@Goeker]

Loved the way you turned it into jazz. Brilliant!

Great music, classical with a jazz feel

[@davidburlingame2421]

Variation on Alla Turca, bravo!

[@Paramecio_Z]

Preciosa, graciosa y original versión. Creo que Mozart tendría una sonrisa de complicidad con Fazil Said y y con esta joven y magnífica pianista. Lo pasarían muy bien tocando juntos. El video en la calle con diferentes pianos está muy bien. ¡Bravo, maestros!

[@agiremack7716]

She's amazing I've always wanted to play piano like this now I'm going to start piano lessons so I can be just as good as her, thanks for inspiring me❤️

Just Beautiful. Thanks for playing.

I love how softly she plays the following 6 seconds after 1:19

I still get goosbumps every time I hear those seconds. And it tingles in my head. It's incredible.

[@comebackid1234]

Her music theory understanding is crazy

[@RareBrink]

I was gonna say the same thing. The variations she made on such a note-dense piece are rather impressive.

[@apwdax]

those variations were made by fazıl say, check him out

[@GWolfs]

Franker Z Fazil Say's version is actually very different to this one, some parts are Fazil, some parts are this lady herself

[@IRZAMiMiC]

great she feels the emotion of playing it and feeling it

[@melonlord7903]

This is one of my favourite songs 😃 I'm so so glad you played it 😊

[@TheMilan720]

Beautiful woman, pianos, sound of those pianos, clear video and great performance :D I'm awesome :D

[@supernessy2]

A really nice version of the Jazz Turkish March !!! Fantastic, i really enjoy your music !!!, I think that you may someday (or not) play the kumru balad from Fazil Say with your personal touch, that could be really great, anyway many thanks for the talent and the art you share with us. Kind Regards Stéphane

that piano is pretty fucked up...

[@tourmousidisgeorgios8959]

Yeah :p

[@lanwangji3882]

Haha. That's no match for our piano. That piano has all the keys still playing even if it's old. We have that same type of piano, and most of the keys are malfunctioning and the pedals are also broken. It's almost like, on the verge of being fully broken and losing its chances of being fixed if not taken care of immediately. She's lucky that old piano still works properly, but ours is older than that piano and malfunctioning.

[@gregorykemi8898]

It's several pianos .. :) and "that" piano is not so fucked up, it sounds really great : ))

[@gregorykemi8898]

Which one of the pianos are you talking about? :D

[@s.e1450]

The sound is not theirs,i am sure that none of those pianos sound that well.They look pretty fucked up,the sound is sychronized with her playing.

[@D4RKBRU73]

I am amazed by the fact, that nobody notices that the images in the videos are cut together while the music remains always the same. I can film myself too "playing" on several pianos while cutting a professional audio track under it....

[@davidstabile700]

bravo.....damn, i got that sheet music in a drawer somewhere from 60 years ago, and the keys on the piano look like those on my grandmothers upright when i first got interested . Thanks for the memories.
