Unfortunately, Jamal Aliyev has had to cancel his Wonderfeel performances for medical reasons. We are thrilled to have found Nil Kocamangil willing to take over from him both the Cello Concerto by Marie Jaëll during the opening concert on Friday and the solo recital on Saturday. Her solo programme will be announced later this week.

Since her solo debut, she has performed with several symphony orchestras, including the Istanbul State Symphony Orchestra, Sinfonietta Köln, Concertgebouw Kamerorkest and Mannheimer Philharmoniker. She also won several prizes at competitions in Croatia, Germany, Bulgaria, Italy, Austria and Turkey. Recently, she joined the renowned Borusan Quartet.
