Şirin Pancaroğlu
At first glance, Turkey’s most renowned harpist, Şirin Pancaroğlu, is distinguished by her open approach to the music played on the harp. Convinced that the harp has a voice of its own strong enough to convey the full breadth of musical expression, Pancaroglu has been recognized in musical circles for her thorough interpretative skills and multifaceted musical personality. She regularly performs new music and traditional music originating from a variety of places and connects with audiences through her candid presence on stage where she often shares her insights on the music she plays. While contributing to the harp repertoire with new works commissioned by her or dedicated to her, she has also explored interesting instrumental combinations generally considered exceptional for the harp. In these collaborations she has set the harp next to percussion, to the Turkish harp, the “chang”, a jazz quintet, viola and voice. At the same time, Pancaroglu has continued to pursue an innovative repertoire for the harp and its more familiar companions such as the flute and violin as well as the harp duo. Indeed, discovering a variety of musical identities for the harp is one of her constant endeavors.
