Ömer Faruk Tekbilek

Ömer Faruk Tekbilek was born in 1951, Adana, Turkey ,  At the age of eight, he began his musical career by developing proficiency on the kaval .

At the same time he studied religion with thoughts of becoming a cleric, or Imam. His musical interests were being nurtured by his older brother and by a sympathetic uncle who owned a music store and who provided lessons. “He had a music store, and he also had another job during the day. So he told me to come after school, open the store, and - in exchange - he gave me lessons.” While working in the store, Omar Faruk learned the intricate rhythms of Turkish music.
