Ahirkapi is the name of a district of Istanbul where generations of gypsies have lived. The musical culture is rich, and every child who comes into the world in Ahirkapi intends one day to play an instrument to be the musical accompaniment to great moments in the life of the community. Composed of a dozen musicians and neighbours, the Ahirkapi Roman Orchestrasi plunges us into the festive and colourful environment which brings the winding streets of this district to life. The philosophy of these itinerant people is to keep alive the restorative role of festival..
