Tanbur: Yavuzhan Erdem Ney: Emin Kutay Suleyman Demirel Bendir: Ebru Erdem "Music is the science of wisdom." Erzurumlu Ibrahim Hakki (1703-1780) • Ney is a very old instrument commonly used in Persian, Turkish, and Arabic music • Depictions of Ney players have been found in wall paintings in the pyramids of Egypt. Rumi, a 13th century Muslim poet known throughout the world for his exquisite poems and words of wisdom, says: Listen to the Ney for it tells you something It complains about separations Ney says: “Since they separated me from the reed bed, My groaning made every woman and man cry. May the separation pierce my heart, Until I can tell the distress of love”. Ney is a friend who is pale and hollow, whose bosom is pierced firing who revives only by the breath of the almighty creator who misses the place it came from who whistles secrets to people with its groaning and screams coming out of its bosom riddled with holes. For this reason, Ney is blessed by Mevlevis and is called “nây-ı şerîf (holy ney)”. As a symbol of God’s breathing into human’s soul while creating him/her, we breath into the Ney so that it delivers sounds from God, and tells us about him. Therefore , instead of saying “to play Ney”, we prefer saying “to breath into the Ney”. In the Old Testament, Genesis 2:7, “ And the LORD God formed man of the dust of the ground, and breathed into his nostrils the breath of life; and man became a living soul.” In the Quran: Verse 32:9, “…and then He forms him in accordance with what he is meant to be, and breathes into him of His spirit, and [thus, O men,] He endows you with hearing, and sight, and feelings as well as minds, [yet] how seldom are you grateful!” • God's "breathing of His spirit into man" is a metaphor for the divine gift of life and consciousness, or of a "soul" • Consequently, "the soul of every human being is of the spirit of God" Program • Turkish Hymn • Instrumental piece, composed in the early 20th century by Lavtaci Andon, a Greek composer of Turkish Classical Music. • Kerimoglu Zeybegi, a folk dance in the Western part of Turkey. Turkish Sufi Hymn (in English) O Messenger of God! You came to bring us mercy, joy, and happiness. O Messenger of God! You came to relieve the hearts of the lovers. Instrumental Piece Composer: Lavtaci Andon (Αντώνης Κυριαζθς) • Andon was a Greek lute player. • His birthday is not known exactly. • He died in 1915. Kerimoglu Zeybegi, Turkish Folk Dance Ataturk, founder of modern Turkey is dancing along with zeybek. .

SILK ROAD: the Silk Road
SILK ROAD: The Silk Road (or Silk Routes) is an extensive interconnected network of trade routes across the Asian continent connecting East, South, and Western Asia with the Mediterranean world, as well as North and Northeast Africa and Europe. FIDDLE/VIOLIN: Turkic and Mongolian horsemen from Inner Asia were probably the world’s earliest fiddlers (see below). Their two-stringed upright fiddles called morin khuur were strung with horsehair strings, played with horsehair bows, and often feature a carved horse’s head at the end of the neck. The morin khuur produces a sound that is poetically described as “expansive and unrestrained”, like a wild horse neighing, or like a breeze in the grasslands. It is believed that these instruments eventually spread to China, India, the Byzantine Empire and the Middle East, where they developed into instruments such as the Erhu, the Chinese violin or 2-stringed fiddle, was introduced to China over a thousand years ago and probably came to China from Asia to the west along the silk road. The sound box of the Ehru is covered with python skin. The erhu is almost always tuned to the interval of a fifth. The inside string (nearest to player) is generally tuned to D4 and the outside string to A4. This is the same as the two middle strings of the violin. The violin in its present form emerged in early 16th-Century Northern Italy, where the port towns of Venice and Genoa maintained extensive ties to central Asia through the trade routes of the silk road. The violin family developed during the Renaissance period in Europe (16th century) when all arts flourished.

Building a Relationship with Percussion Instruments Bill Matney, Kalani Das, & Michael Marcionetti Materials used with permission by Sarsen Publishing and Kalani Das, 2017 Building a relationship with percussion instruments Going somewhere new can be exciting; it might also be a little intimidating or cause some anxiety. If I go to a party where I don’t know anybody except the person who invited me, how do I get to know anyone else? My host will probably be gracious enough to introduce me to others at the party. I will get to know their name, where they are from, and what they commonly do for work and play. In turn, they will get to know the same about me. We may decide to continue our relationship by learning more about each other and doing things together. As music therapy students, we develop relationships with music instruments. We begin by learning instrument names, and by getting to know a little about the instrument. We continue our relationship by learning technique and by playing music with them! Through our experiences and growth, we will be able to help clients develop their own relationships with instruments and music, and therefore be able to 1 strengthen the therapeutic process.

KORG WAVEDRUM ORIENTAL Dynamic Percussion Synthesizer
KORG WAVEDRUM ORIENTAL Dynamic Percussion Synthesizer The Limited Edition WAVEDRUM ORIENTAL boasts a massive infusion of popular, unique, and accurate Arabic percussion sounds, all eminently playable from the dynamic rim and real drum head surface. Arabic percussion – indispensible to belly dancing, world music, and other popular genres – owes its groove and exotic atmosphere not just to its non‐western musical theory and unique performance techniques, but also to the distinctive sound of specific percussion instruments including the darbuka; the riq, def and tar, even the bendir. The striking surfaces of these Arabic percussion instruments are extremely simple, yet they are able to produce a wide range of timbres, one of the essential requirements for playing these inimitable Arabic sounds. The WAVEDRUM is distinguished by its revolutionary synthesis technology, and by an interface that allows a direct physical method of performance, making it the ideal instrument for replicating and articulating these exacting Arabic sounds. To the award‐winning WAVEDRUM, the new WAVEDRUM ORIENTAL adds a full range of algorithms and PCM samples dedicated to Arabic percussion. All of these sounds faithfully simulate the distinctive ways in which the tone is affected by subtle nuances in playing technique and the position of the strike on these acoustic instruments – the Darbuka with its thin single skin, the Riq with its single skin and jingles, and the dual‐skinned Bendir. The number of preset programs has been increased from the previous 100 and now stands at 150 preset programs. Together with the 150 user programs, you can now choose from a total of 300 variations.

Walsh Theatre, Friday, October 27, 8:00 pm A dialogue between the music of Europe from the 15th to the 18th centuries and Ottoman Turkish music of the same period, inspired by the notations and accounts of early European travelers. The concert culminates in the music of Mozart himself, the most famous of the “alla turca” composers. Honoring Mozart! Since this is the 250th year of W. A. Mozart’s birth, we have decided to join with the rest of the world in honoring him in DÜNYA’s Fall 2006 season. Although it is not clear how much direct contact Mozart himself had with Turkish music or musicians, what is clear is that a long tradition of incorporating imitations of Turkish ceremonial music (mehterhane) into European opera and instrumental music extended at least a century before Mozart and at least a generation after him.
