There's new music from Turkey on this New Sounds program. We’ll dip liberally into the soundtrack from the new film, “Crossing The Bridge,” in which the musician and composer, Alexander Hacke (of the German avantgarde band Einstürzende Neubauten), sets out with his mobile recording studio on the streets of Istanbul to capture a cross-section of Turkish music.
