About me:
Oudmaster, Faruk Turunz was born to a civil serving family on 28 June 1944. After attending several schools of Ankara and Istanbul Universities he became a primary school teacher in 1970. Worked at villages in several parts of Anatolia. He resigned from teaching and started constructing ouds in 1984. His first oud came out on March 1984 after a long period of research studies. His original guide and teacher is Mr. Cafer Acin (Chief of the Musical Instruments Construction Branch of Istanbul Technical University Conservatory) who backed Faruk Turunz in his commitment to build an oud and showed him how to prepare a mould and some basic features of the fine instrument. Faruk Turunz created an original method which he named "The Brace Tuning System" He declared this method to the public at a symposium held by The Center for Inter-Mediterranean Cooperation S.A. in the island Crete, Greece, on 25th May 2002.He has built more than 1000 ouds so far. Participated workshops in Crete, Thessaloniki, Amman and Istanbul.

Although the human's feet only occupy a small part of the earth, it is by the space he does not occupy, that man can walk on the immense earth . Although human intelligence only reaches a parcel of the total truth, it is by what it does not reach, that man can understand what is the sky.
