Turkish Classical Performance

Turkish Classical Performance is a genre of music that is rooted in the traditional music of the Ottoman Empire. It is characterized by its use of improvisation, complex rhythms, and intricate melodies. It is often performed by a small ensemble of musicians, including a lead singer, a stringed instrument (such as a saz or oud), a percussion instrument (such as a darbuka or bendir), and a wind instrument (such as a ney or zurna). The music is often accompanied by a variety of vocal styles, including the traditional makam and the more modern arabesque. The genre has been popularized in recent years by a number of prominent Turkish musicians, including Omar Faruk Tekbilek, Mercan Dede, and Aynur Dogan.
