Manuş-u Ala
Founded in Istanbul in 2015, Manus-u Ala is a gypsy jazz ensemble that set out from Django Reinhardt's legacy. Since then the group has folded in the many shades of the swing era, playing jazz standards, French chansons and Turkish and international pop songs from the 1970s through the 1990s in their own arrangements. Built around Gizay Buyukdoganay's vocals, the guitars of Kaan Buyukdoganay and Mehmet Mutlu and Ozcan Yilmaz's violin, the line-up can shift from concert to concert. They released the single "Bazi Gunler" in 2019 and the five-track EP "Yola Devam Et" in 2020, followed by versions of "Hotel California", "Virtual Insanity" and "Volare" in 2024. They have performed at venues such as Nardis Jazz Club, Asa-Khai and Gregor Jazz Club as well as Ankara's CSO Ada.
