Any way .. i hope people know that Lute (Oud),Violin,cello, Hammered Dulcimer came from Persia or Arabic instruments.Crusaders and Merchains brought them back to Europe back in 15, 16, and 17 century...I feel like Violin and cello are the greate greate great grand sons of arabic or turkish fiddle instruments that came back home agian. haha It made me think about Japanese cars in USA.We all are connected, try not to be narrow minded... Love one another.. Hug and HUg
Wow, so inspiring. I was "sent" here by a Turkish friend. He tells me this music if from the Ottoman Empire period. It's wonderful, for what I consider, for meditation background. I am certainly going to get hold of some of this wonderful stuff.
wow .. I'm glad to see that the harp has revived in Arabic (or Turk) music again. after many thousand years that they have been demised from the Arabic music.
Angled harps were used for thousands of years by Anatolian, Mesopotamian and Egyptian civilisations, and the latest to emerge was the Ottoman "çeng" (turkish harp). It was used up until the last quarter of the 17th century, but due to the difficulties in playing, carrying and tuning it, and the increasing popularity of such instruments as the tambur and santur, it slowly disappeared from the stage of history.
I think the angle harps were replaced by Kanun. Kanun is quicker in changing pitches. after arabic music has advanced in 12, 19 and 23 notes within one octave, it s so hard to use a harp to play these complicated notes. Kanun is much more quicker in changing piths during song. As you can see the harpist in this video has to chang her pithes constantly. Levers come in handy. I think back then Levers havnt invented yet.

I am From Greece i ve bought two Cds the one was "Hayal Gibi 2" from Göksel Baktagir
and the other is "Bergama Gaydası" from Hüsnü Şenlendirici & Laço Tayfa Wopnderfull musicians i love Turkish and Arabian Music well done to those musicians they touched my heart ;)
Dear Kentavros thank you for your compliments. I personally prefer Hayal Gibi 1 to HB 2! As for 'Arabian Music', it's better to refer to Middle Eastern music because technically speaking the only Arabs in the Middle East are the Saudi Arabian non-immigrants.
I didn't understand the only Arab are the Saudi thing, but what about Egypt, Syria, Iraq, Tunis, Morocco..Etc(22 or 23 country in the middle east considered Arabic)?
These countries that you mentioned are Arabic origin. But We Turk's origin comes from middle Asia. We have almost 1500 years culture as far we known. Since we have been lived more than 1000 years with Arabic countries together so we have many similarities which is very natural.
The piece is entitled as "the Wind in the Morning". The band is "Istanbul Sazendeleri". "Sazende", from the Ottomon period, refers to a person who plays an instrument. I can assure you that they are the Best and the First of their kind..:) Hope this helps!
This is the the food for the soul, wonderful music and playing. Sounds of the Turkey of the orient.
Bravo
Greetings from Makedonya.

The musicians of "İstanbul Sazendeleri" are playing ottoman music in a synthesis between eastern and western instruments.

What I can suggest you is to search these two sites: "goldenhorn" and "kalan music"
Both are in English. You can also search under
the name of "Goksel Baktagir" who is one of the founders of the group.
