Portrait of Erdal Erzincan
Bağlama · Alevi Song

Erdal Erzincan

Turkish bağlama player, singer and composer, born in Erzurum in 1971. He studied from 1985 at the music school of Arif Sağ and from 1989 at Istanbul Technical University, and helped develop the şelpe technique, which plays the bağlama with the fingers rather than a plectrum. He sings from the Alevi repertoire, in which that instrument is held to be sacred.
