Jazz am Helmholtzplatz e.V. presents

On December 12th, Pina Berlin will be going "back to the roots", as the singer-songwriter's musical roots lie in both Turkish music and jazz.



Pina Berlin, the alter ego of the musician and Berlin resident Pinar Tatlikazan, accompanies her on her journey to realize her dream: to touch people through music, to capture emotions in sounds and to create connections.


If you are wondering what Turkish jazz is, come to the Brotfabrik on December 12th, 2024 and experience Pina Berlin live with her international trio of Berlin jazz musicians.


Combined with elements from jazz music, the audience can expect a diverse mix: from singer-songwriter anthems of the 80s to the psychedelic rock of the 70s to folk standards and modern tango.


She also uses loops and effects to expand the sound possibilities, breaking the boundaries of traditional sound and creating a multifaceted listening experience.


More about Pinar Tatlikazan:

Pinar Tatlikazan is a singer, songwriter and singing teacher, born in Bursa, grew up in Istanbul and has lived in Berlin since 2010. Her musical journey began with classical singing training in Istanbul, followed by studies with renowned jazz musicians in Berlin, Istanbul and Massachusetts.

In addition to her voice, she also plays the saxophone and ukulele. Under her stage name "Pina Berlin" she has released seven singles and one album, which have received multiple nominations. In her songs she deals with topics such as human interaction and self-discovery, finding a balance between self-reflection and motivational messages.

Pinar fuses different cultural influences and musical genres and tries to fill her music with empathy, positivity and hope - in the midst of a hectic world characterized by individualism. However, her path to music was unconventional:
First, she studied architecture in Berlin and led a double life until a burnout and the onset of fibromyalgia forced her to recognize her true calling. She chose music, and since then has worked with respected musicians and performed on prestigious stages in Berlin and Istanbul.

She is currently pursuing her dream and studying “Music and Movement - Rhythmics” at the Berlin University of the Arts, majoring in jazz singing. Here she explores the connection between music and movement, which she discovered through her health journey, in an experimental and improvisational context.
