His second album was related to the holy books. He gained
wide fame in Turkey for his film music for the popular
Turkish movie, "Istanbul Under My Wings".

TULUYHAN PLAYS HIMSELF
Tuluyhan Ugurlu places great importance on performing
his own music instead of the the great classical masters
like Beethoven that the symphony orchestras perform.
He made a firm decision to play only his own music
despite many pressures on him to the contrary. He
explains why: "I don’t have to prove anything
to anyone by playing an already known song. …
The Ottoman Empire reached a high level of art through
architect Mimar Sinan because Sinan's work represents
a high intellectual level. Centuries of Ottoman tradition
are reflected in Sinan’s work." |
