With Beth Bahia Cohen at Tufts

 Take a Look at What You’re Missing!

    When I see the name Beth Bahia Cohen in a program of any concert at Tufts University, I think to myself I’m going!

 I think I have attended all  of Beth’s concert at the University so far and have never regretted it once.

     She is a wonderful string instrument player.( (http://bethcohen.com)

 This past concert with Turkish Music was yet another jewel among her concerts.

Fortunately enough it was some people in the audience, mostly students of course, because the concert was a part of a studying process on ethnic music.

As usual, Beth was on stage with a few great musicians and singers by the names of Burcu Gulec and Mehmet Ali Sanhkol. It was a group known as a “Dunya” ensemble based in Boston, MA

There was also beautiful music and Sufi poetry of 13 - 20 centuries by Pir Sultan Abdal and Yunus Emre. Here is an example of this poetry:

“What is the purpose of learning?

A person must know the Truth

After all of your study if you do not know the Truth

Then you’re nothing but a piece of dry bread”

 The opportunity allows you to learn about the different instruments and Turkish music in general.

Don’t miss it, come to the concerts and exhibits at Tufts.
