Merry Christmas/Happy New Year 1

Just a couple of days to go for Christmas - it was really busy for us - we were shooting and editing a funny video clip for Manzara Istanbul, one of the most authentic places to stay when you're in Istanbul. It's an arabesque version of "O Christmas Tree" recorded and shot by us with help from "Saydelizade", a cameraman based in Istanbul.

This video was originally intended to be a personal seasons greeting of all the people working at Manzara Istanbul to their friends and guests. It is also starring five local musicians that we really like:

Cem Bitgül playing the Saz, Müslüm Döner on the percussion, Richard Hamer from a combo called Orient Expressions with his saxophone, Emir Homayounsard playing the Santur and Özgün Ozkan with his guitar.

The original music recording was performed by Studio Istanbul's sound team with our mobile studio. We hope you'll have as much fun watching this video as we had while shooting and editing it.

Merry Christmas to everyone, have a great start in 2012.
