Yusuf Özdemir - Meryem Osman

Review by Angela Ban

Yusuf Özdemir's latest album "Meryem Osman" is a mesmerizing collection of traditional Turkish music that showcases his skills as a composer and musician. The album features a range of instruments including the oud, ney, and kanun, which blend seamlessly with the haunting vocals of Özdemir and his team of talented singers.

The album opens with the title track "Meryem Osman", a beautiful ode to a beloved woman that sets the tone for the rest of the album. The following tracks are equally enchanting, each one telling a story through the music and lyrics. From the upbeat "Karsilama" to the melancholic "Sor Beni", each song is a masterpiece in its own right.

One of the standout tracks on the album is "Gülümcan", a traditional Turkish song that has been given a modern twist by Özdemir. The song features a haunting melody that is complemented by the beautiful vocals of the female singers.
