	Izmir European Jazz Festival and Istanbul Club Scene
		Izmir, the ancient Smyrne, is an Egean town, to us music fanatics especially relevant for having given birth to the Rebetiko style.
		The European Jazz Festival opened there with a “Play Bach” concert that combined the talents of French pianist Jacques Loussier and his trio with the classical duo of twins Guher and Suher Pekinel.
		The Pekinel are not jazz players, nor they want to be, as they pursue their brilliant classical career, but they are searching for something new, a different synthesis, and this is a very healthy attitude.
