The Songs of The Turkish Cypriots- KOZAN

KOZAN
It is clear that Cyprus Turkish Folk Music is under the influence of Anatolian folk music although it developed its local characteristics as well. Most of the folk songs were known orally since the collecting and documenting this kind of information was delayed due to the unorganized life of the Turkish Cypriots until 1974 under the impact of their political struggle for survival.

Editing of Turkish folk music has begun in 1973 and they were recorded in musical notes. The research for the discovery of the unforgotten folk songs are still going on. The Turkish Folk Music group established by the government and others by private institutions are contributing to the activities of Turkish Folk Music actively today. Has-Der which is an Association of Folk Arts is rather active in collecting and editing Cypriot Folk music and dances as well as some other cultural and anthropological aspects of Cyprus.

For those of us who remember Cyprus before the invadtion in 1974 where most villages were mixed and who's grand parents were not affard to mix in language and in song. Just like this song, played by Greeks/Turks and by most Arabic nations. Like the Bouzouki, a Turkish/Arabic instrument played in Greece. So lets not forget our history.
