Close your eyes and listen to Elif Çağlar’s impeccable renditions of songs like “Killing Me Softly With His Song,” and “Too Darn Hot,” and you’ll swear you’re in a club somewhere in New York City. (Çağlar’s spot-on diction may be the result of the three years she spent in the Big Apple, where she earned a Master’s in Jazz Performance from the Aaron Copland School of Music). Open your eyes, and you’ll see the trademark smile that rarely leaves Çağlar’s face as she puts everything she’s got into her singing. Çağlar’s performance at Nardis this Saturday evening will feature original songs from her newly-released CD, M-U-S-I-C; she will be accompanied by a talented ensemble consisting of Burak Bedikyan on piano, Kağan Yıldız on bass, and Ferit Odman on drums.
