In the wake of Da Vinci
Constantinople feat. Marco Beasley
Everyone has heard of Galata Bridge over the Bosporus in Istanbul. In fact it could have been a bridge designed by Leonardo da Vinci if the design he made for the Sultan of Constantinople had been put into practice. Although that never happened, his sketches have been preserved. They have inspired Kiya Tabassian, the artistic director of the famous Canadian ensemble Constantinople, to compile Eastern and Western music from Da Vinci’s time. The ensemble’s musical master builder is Marco Beasley, who will sing Da Vinci’s Italy back to life
