Majnoon: Channeling Eastern Elegance into a Universal Symphony

Majnoon, created by M. Kayhan Yakarlar (KhaiKhan), the founder of Rist Istanbul and Rist Records, Majnoon is a musical odyssey that gracefully integrates the richness of the East into a tapestry of universal sounds.

With the guiding philosophy of "Music Rising from the East," Majnoon undertakes the noble mission of uniting the world through the authenticity of its local roots. Nourished by the cultural essence of its surroundings, Majnoon embraces the belief in the universality of music, composing pieces that transcend linguistic, religious, and racial boundaries. In the fleeting moments of our lives, Majnoon recognizes the collective journey we share on this exquisite planet, striving to imprint its sonic signature on the tapestry of existence.

In this brief and ephemeral existence, Majnoon seeks to leave an enduring legacy through its sounds, celebrating the diversity inherent in our shared humanity. Driven by a profound desire and love for the art, Majnoon crafts each performance as an improvised manifestation of passion, responding to the energy of the moment with an authentic and heartfelt expression.

Isn't each of us an impassioned lover in our own right?

Majnoon's performances skillfully weave oriental, ethnic, electronic, and spiritual tones into a harmonious blend, echoing the soul's deepest resonances. Accompanied by a diverse array of instruments such as the ney (reed flute), duduk, clarinet, kanun, darbuka, percussion, balaban, saxophone, kabak kemane, cumbus, baglama, vocals, and more, Majnoon's sonic palette paints a vivid portrait of cultural diversity.

As Majnoon embarks on this journey through sound and emotion, it invites listeners to join a mesmerizing expedition where borders dissolve, and the essence of music transcends all limitations. In its artistic expression, Majnoon reverberates the universal truth that music is the language that harmoniously unites us all.
