NTIZEZA Waves: Sanem’s Historical Revelations S1E3 – Progressive Disasters

Sanem’s Historical Revelations is a series of musical lecture-performances, with a live audience.

When did we stop believing that the future might be a nice place? Our immediate ancestors thought that with time, things would get better. Progress was the inevitable and immutable direction of human history, they said.

Join Sanem in this third episode of HR, where she narrates, sings, plays the piano, accompanied by Seray Yalçın on the cümbüş.
