Review: BBC PROMS: ALTIN GÜN, Royal Albert Hall
by Debbie Gilpin - Aug 29, 2026

This was the situation in which I found myself at the Royal Albert Hall last night when Altın Gün took to the stage to celebrate their album Garip, which itself is a tribute to legendary Turkish folk musician Neşet Ertaş. A modern twist on the music they were brought up listening to.
