ANALAYSING OF TÜRKÎS IN HÂZÂ MECMÛ'A-İ SÂZ Ü SÖZ IN TERMS OF VARIANTIZATION

Summary/Abstract: the instrumental and oral repertoire of the Topkapı Palace and its surroundings, from approximately 400 years ago to the present day. It contains valuable data regarding the history of Turkish music and the general conjuncture of the period. The lack of studies on HMSS in the field of Turkish folk music emphasizes the importance and necessity of studying on this subject. In addition, no study has been found that examines türkis in terms of variantization. In this study, the variation of türkîs (folk music genre of the 17th century) that are thought to be important in terms of Turkish folk music sources and repertoire in Ali Ufkî Bey's manuscript, is examined and how these variants are formed is revealed. During the research process, firstly, a literature review was conducted. Afterwards, the note transcriptions obtained by Muammer Uludemir (1992) and Hakan Cevher (1995) from the facsimile of HMSS prepared by Şükrü Elçin were compared, the obtained data were analyzed in terms of variantization and the results were shared. Ali Ufkî Bey recorded a total of 529 songs from the repertoire performed in Topkapı Palace and its surroundings in the 17th century. Considering that the songs such as türkî, varsağı and tekerleme are among the folk music genres of the period, a total of 153 folk melodies have survived from the 17th century to the present day. Of the 104 turkî samples examined, oral variation was observed in 8, melodic variation in 10, both melodic and oral variation in 4, and rhythmic variation in 4.
