Two of the European Cultural Capitals in 2010 - Istanbul and the Ruhr area - are united in the personality of the composer and pianist Fazil Say. He lives in Istanbul and has for the past five years also been exclusive artist at the Konzerthaus Dortmund, the largest city in the Ruhr area. This cooperation will culminate in the highlight of a concert, the World Première of Say’s Istanbul Symphony in which the composer has created a portrait of the city in seven movements capturing everyday situations and the atmosphere, history and people of this great metropolis.
