The Secret Trio is composed of three musicians rooted in Turkish, Balkan Roma (Gypsy) and Armenian music: Ismail Lumanovski clarinet, Tamer Pınarbaşı kanun (zither) and Ara Dinkjian oud (fretless lute). They perform original pieces and traditional melodies that incorporate the microtonal modes and improvisation of the Middle East, dance beats of the Balkans, and elements of jazz, rock, classical and world music.
