Traditional Turkish Music

Traditional Turkish music is a rich and diverse genre rooted in Ottoman classical music, folk traditions, and regional styles. It features intricate melodies, emotional expression, and the use of traditional instruments such as the oud, kanun, ney, and bağlama. Vocal performances often emphasize microtonal nuances and poetic lyrics, ranging from deeply melancholic to celebratory. Influences from Sufi, Anatolian, and Roma musical traditions add further complexity. Whether performed in a refined classical setting or as heartfelt folk ballads, traditional Turkish music reflects the depth of Turkish cultural heritage.
