Mythos of Cilicia for Flute and Piano, Op. 4 No. 2

From the Publisher

Cilicia is an ancient region of Anatolia, which covers the area surrounded by the Taurus Mountains from the north, starting from Alanya and ending in Kinet Höyük in the east.
The first settlement records in the region date back to the Neolithic Age, around 8000 BC.
Hittites, Persians, Romans, Abbasids, Byzantines, Armenian Kingdom, Crusaders, Mamluks, Seljuks, Rmadanid and Ottomans lived in the region. Cilicia is the mirror of a cultural mosaic in terms of its cultural structure and geographical and historical richness.
As a motorcycle enthusiast, I have lived in the region between 2014 and 2019. For five years, I have experienced this cultural heritage with my motorcycle tours throughout the region and was very impressed. When this interaction is combined with the composer’s curiosity for history, archeology and mythology, Mythos of Cilicia emerged. This work, which consists of five original movements, has given the region a musical language in a sense.
