Macar etnomuzikolog, arastirmaci ve derleyici Dr. János Sipos, Anadolu?da Bartók'un Izinde adli kapsamli arastirmasinda, Macar halk musikisi ile Anadolu halk musikisi arasindaki benzerlikleri ele aliyor. Bu konuya yanit arayan ilk arastirmaci Béla Bartók olmustu. Bartók 1936'da Turkiye?de halk musikisi ezgileri derlemis, derledigi turkuleri de tek tek notaya gecirip bunlari o bildigimiz derin musiki bilgisiyle irdelemisti. Ne var ki bu eser, besteci oldukten yillar sonra yayimlandi. Macarlarla Turklerin tarih oncesi caglari ve bu iki halkin musiki gelenekleri arasindaki baglantilari derinlemesine ele alan bu eser etnomuzikoloji alaninda basli basina bir kilometre tasi olmustu.

Having shown up at the stage of history since the VIth century Uyghur Turks gained their independence by putting an end to Kokturk rule in 744 A.D and established the Uyghur State (744-840 AD). Kutluk Bilge Kul Khagan is the first ruler of the Uyghur State whose capital city was Ordu-Balik. The Otuken (Steppe) Uyghur State was forced to disintegrate in 840 A.D with the siege of Ordu-Balik (Karabalgasun) by the Kirgizs and resulted in migrations to various places. One group of the Uyghurs who were forced to migrate arrived in northwestern China, established the Kansu Uyghur State and another group headed to the west and founded the Turfan Uyghur State where today's Eastern Turkestan is located. Several prosaic and poetic literary works that are produced in Old Uyghur Turkish between the IXth and XIth centuries of the history of Turkish language were written mainly about four religions. Those works belonging to the circle of Manicheism, Buddhism, Christianity and Islam are classified under literary genres such as: kosuk, sudur, çatik, vinaya, abidarma. Tis texts is one of Buddhist peritexts, namely the Story of Prince Kalyanamkara and Papamkara in which the story of Buddha was embellished by extra-ordinary, fabulous events and is written in the form of "çatik". This manuscipt is preserved by the registration number Pelliot Chinois 3509 in Paris Bibliotheque Nationale. Being written in Old Uyghur Turkish, this text consists of 40 sheets some pages containing 7 lines and others containing 8 lines. Supposedly written in the 10th century, the manuscript has more than ten versions in four languages such as: Chinese, Sanskrit, Tibetan and Turkish. The first academic work on the manuscipt was done by Clement Huart in 1914. Having considered the work as deficient and erroneous, Paul Pelliot re-published the worked in the same year.

AHMED ADNAN SAYGUN, (1907-1991).
[INCI'S BOOK] [SHEET MUSIC] Inci'nin kitabi: Piano için 7 parça, Op. 10.
Very Good Turkish Paperback. Folio. (33 x 24,5 cm). In Turkish. 12 p. [SHEET MUSIC] Inci'nin kitabi: Piano için 7 parça, Op. 10. Turkish composer Adnan Saygun composed this set of children's pieces in 1934. The paper provides information about the developments in the field of music in the early years of the Republic of Turkey, first generation composers, called "The Turkish Five", including Ahmed Adnan Saygun. The score includes a page of commentary about the composer and work. Ahmet Adnan Saygun was a Turkish composer, musicologist and writer on music. One of a group of composers known as the Turkish Five who pioneered western classical music in Turkey, his works show a mastery of Western musical practice, while also incorporating traditional Turkish folk songs and culture. When alluding to folk elements he tends to spotlight one note of the scale and weave a melody around it, based on a Turkish mode. His extensive output includes five symphonies, five operas, two piano concertos, concertos for violin, viola and cello, and a wide range of chamber and choral works. The Times called him "the grand old man of Turkish music, who was to his country what Jean Sibelius is to Finland, what Manuel de Falla is to Spain, and what Béla Bartók is to Hungary". Saygun was growing up in Turkey he witnessed radical changes in his country's politics and culture as the reforms of Mustafa Kemal Atatürk had replaced the Ottoman Empire -which had ruled for nearly 600 years- with a new secular republic based on Western models and traditions. As Atatürk had created a new cultural identity for his people and newly founded nation, Saygun found his role in developing what Atatürk had begun. It's a symphonic arrangement. Sheetmusicplus S0.5825.

He attended the Reformed College in Debrecen, then studied linguistics at the Budapest University between 1879 and 1882. With the financial support of the Hungarian Academy of Sciences and the Budapest Jewish community, he spent five years in Constantinople studying the Turkish language and culture. In 1890 he was appointed at the Budapest University as professor of Turkish philology. Between 1899-1919 he was the director of the newly organized Oriental College of Commerce in Budapest. From 1919 until 1922 he held the same post at the Oriental Institute integrated into the Budapest University of Economics, and then from 1922, he taught Turkish linguistic at the university.

From 1885 until 1890, during his stay in Constantinople, he traveled to Rumelia, Anatolia, Syria, Palestine, and Egypt. During his trip, he observed and studied the characteristics of the Turkish dialects, ethnography, folk poetry, and folk customs of Turkish and other local peoples.

Yayla: Musique et musiciens de villages en Turquie Meridionale [With a CD]. Preface de Nicolas Elias.
New French Paperback. Roy. 8vo. (24 x 17 cm). In French. 354, [4] p., 8 numerous color plates, 1 CD. "Les Yayla sont les estives où les yörük, nomades et semi-nomades turkmènes, mènent leurs troupeaux au mois de mai, dans de longues transhumances; et c est plus souvent, désormais, le lieu où ces nomades ont fini par se sédentariser. Ainsi, au sud-ouest de la Turquie, non loin de la Méditerranée, dans quelques yayla du Taurus occidental, des musiciens répètent à l'envi de petites musiques formulaires pour inciter des parents ou amis à danser. Ceux-ci enchaînent les figures bras levés, en tournoyant, sur un cycle de quatre pas, dont un suspendu. La musique du lieu révèle son charme discret, mais irrésistible: une métrique boiteuse omniprésente, des mélodies dont l'ambitus ne dépasse guère une sixte, et qu il est difficile au premier abord de distinguer entre elles, tant les lois combinatoires de leur formation sont subtiles. Ainsi ces anciens nomades suspendent-ils le temps, en l'enfermant dans le cercle de la répétition, de la ritournelle. L'ethnomusicologue, venu là d abord pour apprendre les secrets du bag;lama, petit luth emblématique de cette société, y rencontre l amitié indéfectible des maîtres de musique, derniers témoins de la vie pastorale d antan. Ensemble ils interrogent le devenir et les mutations de cette société, depuis le passé préservé dans les mémoires, jusqu au présent ethnograhique; en s immergeant dans le temps vécu, en épousant ses rythmes, l'ethnomusicologue apprend à capter les vibrations et les intensités qui traversent ce territoire, à saisir les enjeux esthétiques et politiques qui's y expérimentent. La monographie qui en résulte part de ce petit pays de danseurs, de ses conceptions musicales, de ses habitus, en explorant les concepts de rythme, de territoire, de minorité. Interrogeant la nature profonde de ce monde rural qui reste fort peu étudié par l anthropologie, l auteur propose une géomusicologie: car la musique est ici non seulement objet d étude, mais aussi trait d union entre un paysage et les hommes qui l'habitent.".

New Persian Original bdg. HC. Roy. 8vo. (24 x 17 cm). Text in Persian with an English preface by Janahmadi. [4], 415 p. Târîkh-i 'âyîn-hâ wa sha'â'ir-i Fâtimiyân. Foreword by Farhad Daftary. History of the rituals and mourns of Fatimids. "Fatimids knew that one way to change the social behaviour was to use the same rituals and customs that strengthened religious and national identity. These rituals and ceremonies by creating a lively and active atmosphere invited people to social participation and strengthen mass communication which led to creation of unity between tribes and heterogeneous institutions in different neighborhoods of Egypt. Moreover showing cultural rituals reconstructed the cultural identity of their followers. While holding these festivals and mourning ceremonies imposed exorbitant costs and expenses on Fatimid government in general the glorious holding of these celebrations was a reflection of the good economic condition of the Fatimid court. In this work by using the usual historical methods based on accurate descriptions first I have presented vivid pictures of the festivals celebrations and mourning of this era and in the following I have analyzed the afore-mentioned customs and rituals in details. Based on the questions in the introduction of the book the structure of this collection is divided into five long chapters and one conclusion...".
