   About Fulya
Fulya is a singer-songwriter from Turkey who blends elements of folk and jazz in her music. Her first solo debut album “Buz Kralicesi” has been released by Irem Records in May, 2007. In Buz Kralicesi, 11 of the songs are her own compositions and lyrics while she’s composed two pieces of 17th century Ottoman Poets Nedim and Baki among them. Aykut Gurel is the producer of her album and Cem Tuncer, made all the arrangements. Her former album was with her Folk Duo “Folkfish”, it was comprised of Irish, English and Scottish Folk ballads. She actually had spent a year gigging around the folk clubs in Dublin(O’Donoghues Pub), Edinburgh(Edinburgh Folk Club, Royal Oak), Galway,etc. While in Dublin, she appeared several times on RTE Radio and her reputation got her the name “Nightingale of Grafton Street” , since she used to be busking on Garfton Street for quite a while. She studied Philosophy at Bosphorus University, Istanbul , from where she received her M.A Degree in Philosophy in 2006 as well. She is quite a multi-culti person herself so to speak and you can tell by looking at the title of her M.A thesis: “Liberal Multiculturalism and the individual: An alternative account of Cultural Identities”. She spent a year travelling around Asia overland during which she travelled from Vietnam to Turkey overland. She is currently working as a freelance journalist at Zaman Newspaper, writing as "Fulya Ozlem" . Having written a cookery column called “Trav’ler’s Cuisine”, she is now doing interviews for the culture& arts section of the Saturday Supplement called Cumaertesi again at Zaman. She also writes weekly at Today's Zaman on music, food and her weekly column called "Urban Legends" every Friday at Expat Zone. She directed a short film called “Sunflower” last year. Right now, she is working on a documentary about a Roman Dance teacher in Istanbul, called “Red Rose Street: A Reyhan Tuzsuz documentary”. She is currently doing her PhD at I.T.U's Sate Conservatory of Turkish Music on "Musicology and Music Theory". Ozan-sarkici geleneginin en yeni temsilcilerinden Fulya’nin Buz Kralicesi adli ilk solo albumu Irem Records imzasini tasiyor. Neredeyse tumu Fulya’nin besteleri ve sozlerinden olusan albumun aranjorlugunu Cem Tuncer, produktorlugunu ise Aykut Gurel ustlenmis. Lisans ve yuksek lisansini Bogazici Universitesi Felsefe Bolumu’nde tamamlayan Fulya, daha önce Folkfish adli grubuyla Irlanda, Iskoc ve Ingiliz folk sarkilari soyledi.Ilk albumu Folkfish irlanda ve ingiliz folk baladlari'ndan olu--uyordu. Dublin, Edinburgh ve Melbourne’de folk Club’larda soyledi ve sokak performanslari yapti. RTE irlanda radyosu’nda canli performanslar, Edinburgh fringe festivali’nde cesitli dinletiler verdi. Cocuklugunda aldigi Turk Sanat Muzigi egitimi ve Ingiliz folk muzigi etkisi halen sarkilarinda hissediliyor. Fulya ayni zamanda bir gezgin, universiteden sonra 2 yil Iskocya’dan Avustralya’ya, Vietnam’dan Iran’a dek karayoluyla gectigi uzun bir seyahatten sonra dondugunde yogun bir sekilde sarki yazma surecine girmis ve ortaya Buz Kralicesi’ndeki sarkilar cikmis.Heybesinde Irlanda’da sokak performanslari esnasinda 2000 albumunu bizzat satmak ve bu sayede dunyayi gezecek kadar para kazanmak gibi ilginc deneyimler var bu geziden kalma. Gecen yil yine (2007-Nisan) Halep’ten Kudus’e sadece kadinlardan olusan “Follow The Women” baris konvoyuna katilarak bisikletle Ortadogu’yu gezdi. Yaz aylarinda ciktigi Arjantin-Uruguay seyahatinde Tango ve Folklorico sarkiciligiyla tanisti ve su an heyecan duydugu en yeni aktivite ispanyolca sarkilar yazmak. Fulya, seyahatlerinde katildigi mutfak workshoplari sayesinde Zaman Gazetesi Cumaertesi eki’nde bir yil boyunca surdurdugu “Gezgin’in Mutfagi” kosesini yazdi, halen ayni gazetede yazi ve roportajlar yaparak gazetecilige devam ediyor. Today's Zaman gazetesi'nde ise ingilizce olarak "Urban Legends"i, "Gezgin'in Mutfagi"ni ve haftalik muzik yazilarini yaziyor. 2006 tarihli B.U. Mithat Alam Film Merkezi destegiyle cektigi Gunebakan isimli bir de kisa filmi var Fulya’nin. Bu film Filmmor, Hisar Kisa Film Festivali gibi festivallerde gosterildi, B.U’de senaryo odulune, Kocaeli’ndeyse 2006 2. Genc Yetenekler Kisa Film Yarismasi’nda 3.luk odulune layik goruldu. Su siralar Roman Dansi ve Dans ogretmeni üzerine bir belgesel cekiyor. Adi: "Gul Sokak: Bir Reyhan Tuzsuz Hikayesi" Akademik hayatina ise Atina Universitesi Felsefe Bolumu’nde “Wittgenstein ve Kimlik” konulu doktorasiyla ve I.T.U Turk Musikisi Devlet Konservatuari'nda Muzikoloji doktorasiyla devam ediyor.

On your beauty:

Noble fire, why do you writhe so?
Fire said, Because of the lightning
of his face my heart is restless.

Wind-messenger of the world, why
are you light of heart?
Wind said, My heart would burn if
the choice were mine.

Filminin senaryosunu yaziyor, yonetmenligini yapiyor, muziklerini hazirliyor, sarki sozlerini yaziyor, o buyulu sesi ile bizi derinden yakaliyor, album cikariyor. Fulya icin deyimler yetersiz kaliyor: 10 parmaginda 10 marifet, bir koltuga iki karpuz sigdirmak, vs.

Arabada, evde, isyerinde surekli seni dinliyoruz.

Seninle tanistigim icin cok mutluyum.

Sevi ve umutla.....
