Reform, Notation and Ottoman Music in Early 19th Century Istanbul:
EUTERPE presents the first complete set of transcription and
edition of Euterpe (1830) from Byzantine neumatic notation into the
modified staff notation used by classical Turkish music and is
accompanied by a substantial examination of the related historical,
theoretical and musical topics. Through a series of Ottoman/Turkish
classical vocal music compositions that can be dated to the 18th
and 19th centuries, Euterpe and related sources reinforce a much
broader picture of musical practice and transmission in which we
clearly see that the Greek and Turkish traditions are linked.
Reform, Notation and Ottoman Music in Early 19th Century Istanbul
is presented in two parts: historical discussion and musical
analysis, and complete transcription and edition of Euterpe. This
book will appeal to music scholars and university students
interested in minorities, cosmopolitanism in the Middle East and
Balkans, the relationship between music and national identity,
musical notation, classical Ottoman/Turkish music, Byzantine music,
and, most significantly, ethnomusicology.
