In my process of learning the duduk, I have experienced different techniques and styles. I finally have found my musical identity as a duduk player after a long and difficult journey; however, I have benefited from different styles and cultures, and, inspired from different stories. This journey gave me new and different perspectives, knowledge, experience and story. You are welcome to write your own story.
Special thanks to Derya Ulkat and Deniz Ulkat.
Thanks a lot to Baris Ayhan and Lea Laubacher for French subtitles.
ABOUT ME
I am a professional duduk player and educator.
I studied in Istanbul Technical University Turkish Music State Conservatory. I studied the duduk with Suren Asaduryan and Özcan Gül. I joined in Erkan Oğur’s and Derya Türkans workshops, who are two prominent representatives of Anatolian music.
It is possible to hear both Turkish and Armenian and also Ottoman Classical Music modes and patterns in my playing style. I have contributed to many albums and music productions with my duduk throughout my career. I composed music for quartet (duduk, piano, double bass, drums) and founded the band “Canberk Ulaş Quartet” in 2015 and I released my album titled “Telafi" with this band in 2017.
I continue working on my music projects, giving concerts in different parts of the world and giving duduk online lessons to duduk lovers from all over the world.
The St John Passion, performed by the Nederlands Bach Society for All of Bach, was the first Passion Bach had written as cantor in Leipzig. The Passion story as told in the Gospel of John is different from that told by the other three evangelists – Matthew, Luke and Mark. John’s version places the emphasis on Christ’s divine origin. Throughout his suffering, this divine origin still plays a role and nowhere is Jesus as human as in the other gospels.
For this performance, we selected a cast of singers under the age of 35. Apart from the leaders, all the orchestra members are also younger than 35. The concert series was preceded by a course of auditions and masterclasses.
Recorded for the project All of Bach on March 11th 2017 at the Grote Kerk, Naarden. If you want to help us complete All of Bach, please subscribe to our channel bit.ly/2vhCeFB and consider donating bit.ly/2uZuMj5.

Artist: Yuan Sheng piano
This is the third instalment of Yuan Sheng’s complete Bach cycle played on the piano, previous issues include the Goldberg Variations and the Italian Concerto/French Overture.
“China’s premier interpreter of Bach”, is what International Piano Magazine called Yuan Sheng. A pupil of Solomon Mikowsky (Manhattan School of Music) and notably Rosalyn Tureck Yuan Sheng extensively studied the performance practice of Baroque music. Equally at home at the harpsichord he has an instinctive feeling for the possibilities, sonorities and touch of the instrument at hand, so that “the listener might easily have imagined the composer at the keyboard” (Boston Intelligencer).
This recent recording of the complete 6 Partitas is again a marvel of elegance, wit, rhetoric and brilliance, played on a modern Steinway.
Besides pursuing an international career Yuan Sheng is Professor of Piano at the Bejing Central Conservatory of Music.
