French-Spanish musician Garcia-Fons is a trailblazer on the double bass, to which he has added a fifth string. On one of his musical journeys he met Derya Turkan, a virtuoso of the Turkish fiddle, with whom he recreated classical Ottoman court music as if it had always been meant to be played by a string duo. Their long-standing wish to make a new album together was realised in 2014. In the Bimhuis Amsterdam the duo will present Silk Moon: original compositions nurtured by Oriental and South European influences, and inspired by the profound song tradition of the Oriental maqam and the Andalusian cante jondo.


The smallest and the biggest string instrument once entwined in an intimate and poetic dialogue, then explosive like a full orchestra. On double bass and kemenche, Fons and Turkan compose and play enchanting new vistas.
