EFFECTIVE PERIODS IN THE FORMATION OF THE MUSICAL IDENTITY OF GREEK COMMUNITIES

Summary/Abstract: The Anatolian lands, which have hosted numerous civilizations, continue to embrace various traditions, cultures, and music despite the passage of centuries. It is an inevitable result that cultures living in the same region for many years leave traces of themselves and that other societies follow and adopt these traces. The issue of how interactions are embraced at common points and the clarity of the results when investigating their origins have not been fully confirmed. In order to better understand how the interaction between cultures unites at basic points, how it becomes an integral part of their lives, how it affects traditions and music, important points in history must be known. This study aims to examine the Anatolian influence on the formation of Greek music using periodical approaches. The research takes a descriptive approach and employs qualitative research methods, particularly document analysis, by reviewing relevant literature in the field. The study falls under the category of descriptive historical research. Sub-objectives have been set in line with the established goal, encompassing “Music of Ancient Greek and Hellenistic Era,” “Music of Roman Era,” “Music of Byzantine and Christian Era,” “Music of Ottoman Empire,” and “Music of Modern Greek Era.”
