  • I dont care where it came from... all I say its so magic song that I trying play this in PIANO, since a find a sheet music in a other instrument... its very cool know little of other cultures in the world.

    Obrigada, form Brasil ^^

  • @AlexBouzouki

    I didn't say Zeybeks themselves composed the songs. I said, there was no Zeybeks b4 1800, so these songs are from 19th century, mostly after 1870 when the popularity of Zeybeks peaked.

    These are Turkish songs because Zeybek culture started by the Turks who opposed Ottoman regime. All these songs originally had Turkish lyrics, never Greek. Zeybek culture didnt reach to Aegean islands b4 1890s and it came to Morea after population exchange in 1923

  • @mail2onur Also,zeybeks were rebels and couldnt really compose great songs.Many ""zeybek"" songs come from traditional greek and turkish songs.

  • @mail2onur It is not bozuq saz it is just bozuq,because turks didnt like the sound of it...

    It does not come from the saz(saz is an iranian instrument)but from the ancient assyrian (500 before Christ)Pandura,Greeks of Classical period took the pandura and named it trichordon(three strings).Byzantine Greeks named it tamburas(the small one)and thambura(the big one).The turkish tanbur comes from the thambura.

    And I dont believe that it couldnt be a folk song

  • @mail2onur

    Ohh, also your name is bouzuki. If you really are a bouzuki (bozuk saz, a Turkish word) player and a musician, you should understand that this song is a product of a professional composer, but not a folk song composed by ordinary people. Just listen to the melody and notes

  • @AlexBouzouki

    Maybe he has been inspired by an older folk song, we don't know that for sure but officially, this song has been composed by him. Thats a fact.

    And about the other songs you mentioned; Zeybeks started to roam around Aegean Anatolia mountains not earlier than 1790s. We know that from Ottoman state archives. But none of these Zeybek culture and songs reached to the Aegean islands b4 1880s. So, it`s not possible that these Zeybek tunes are supposedly from islands.

  • @mail2onur no man...the song is nof of cemil bey.it is from othoman empire but it is OLDER than the great composer cemil bey.in the same way the traditional song madalena or rast zeybegi was just recorded by cemil

  • @raniathess1 to tragoudi einai mitilinio rania.......onomastike etsi dioti Ιστορικά λέγεται ότι πρωτοπαίχτηκε στην Αγιάσο της Λέσβου όταν τέλειωνε η κατασκευή του πρώτου μηχανοκίνητου ελαιοτριβείου και πήρε το όνομα του σαν τραγούδι γιατί την ημέρα που τοποθετήθηκαν τα ξύλα που στήριζαν την οροφή του κτιρίου οι Αγιασώτες βγήκαν στους δρόμους της πόλης και έπαιζαν αυτό το τραγούδι.. μάλιστα η ονομασία του τραγουδιού είναι και ΤΑΜΠΑΝΙΑ γιατί έτσι αποκαλούν τα ξύλα που στηρίζουν την οροφή...

  • @halildemirezen it is called like this because at the greek language the name of this traditional greek song is the woods in english and in greek language ΤΑ ΞΥΛΑ! that's why..the story of this song is very old.
