When Burak Çebi put together the repertoire for his album "Bright Spots", his first intention was not to introduce the public to as many different composers from Turkey as possible. Instead, he was guided solely by his personal taste in the selection of pieces and chose works that he most wanted to record. Although he would describe himself and his "artistic existence" as European in many respects, his view of the music of his home country is by no means marked by Orientalism. Rather, it is a search for his roots, which are also always connected to the future. After working intensively on the conception of this album, Burak Çebi discovered more and more his own way of composing, ultimately telling his story as a person and as an artist.
