İlayda Hatipoğlu won the “Attending to Ankara Jazz Festival” award at the Nardis Jazz 20th Young Jazz Musician competition. You are invited to her firs concert in Ankara to get to know this talented young lady and her friends. We would like to thank SAMM's Bistro for their concert and venue support.

The İlayda Hatipoğlu Quartet started in September 2025 when pianist İlayda Hatipoğlu and guitarist Efe Selvi first met at Nardis Jazz Club. This collaboration soon became a full quartet with Melih Can Yardı on electric bass and Berkay Sümbül on drums, giving the group a rich and deep musical identity.

The quartet explores the multilayered polyphonic world created by guitar and piano as two harmonic instruments. With rhythms and harmonies carefully intertwined, their music offers the audience both an innovative and heartfelt experience.

You can find their musician profiles on the Bizim Caz website, created as part of the Turkish Jazz Archive project: https://bizimcaz.com/musician/IlaydaHatipoglu
