Turkey has (and has had) a thriving classical music culture- looking forward to hearing the Usmanbas recording. I have, since college, enjoyed (commercial) recordings of several works by Saygun (symphonies, quartets, concertos, an oratorio Yunus Emre) and (if I recall- I may have heard of him rather than works by him...) Akses. Have also heard of several other composers from Turkey I hope to investigate...
I really like Ince's 2nd symphony, fwiw.
