I wonder if people found music that was born so peacefully good in this tense environment. It’s good for me to be calm and relax a bit. Things are bad, you turn on the news on TV, drama, tragedy… We’re a little tired. That’s why this introversion, one has to try to remember one’s mother, even if she’s not alive.

He gave concerts to tens of thousands in Tunceli.

I went to Kaz Mountains with the idea of ​​helping nature. There were 30-40 thousand people. Ovacik, Tunceli… There were nearly 20 thousand people. Amid all this stress, these concerts teach me why we do this job. What we do has meaning. In this kind of concert, 60 albums, 100 works, three thousand concerts have a meaning. For example, my music worked in Kaz Mountains.

We gave a message here. This is a message not only about the clean flow of Munzur, but also in terms of more integration of people in eastern Turkey, living together and not being marginalized.”

Society wants to stay modern, to remain civilized, not to be marginalized. There are answers to these. At the same time concerts are canceled I think he made an innovation in Turkey. Tunç Soyer should also be congratulated. They didn’t give up, day and night… It was amazing.
