Bu düşünceyle, yerel ve profes- yonel müzik ustalarının müzikseverlerle usta-çırak ilişkisi bağlamında dersler yapması, kadim Ana- dolu M sazlarının ve geleneklerinin unutulmayıp yerel ustalardan genç nesillere aktarılması, çeşitli müzikal disiplin ve geleneklerin bir arada ses bulup birbirinden güç kazandığı kolektif bir müzikal yaşamı gerçekleştirmek için kurulmuştur. Müzik Köyü, Bela Bartok’un “Topraktan kopuk olan her müzik ölmeye mahkumdur.” sözünü benimseyen ve bütün müzikseverleri toprağa temas etmeye çağıran bir projedir. Bu amaçla Anadolu Kültürleri Araştırma Topluluğu tarafından Türkiye’ nin ilk Müzik Köyü, 25-30 Ağustos 2015 tarihlerinde Muğla’nın Fethiye ilçesi sınırları içerisinde bulunan Yanıklar Köyü’nde kuruldu. Müzik Köyü Fethiye 2015’de genel tema Anadolu Müzik Kültürleri ve Teke Yöresi Müziği üzerineydi. 20 yerel ve profesyonel müzisyen, çalgı ustası ve akademisyenin atölye, söyleşi, dinleti ve usta-çırak dersleri gerçekleştirdiği etkinliklerin Türkiye’den ve Avusturya, İsrail ve İngiltere gibi ülkelerden 60’ın üzerinde katılımcısı oldu. 6 7 Müzik Köyü, Yanıklar Köyü’nde projenin ruhuna son de- rece uygun kerpiçten yapılmış bir işletmenin kiralanmasıyla gerçekleşti. Katılımcılar bu işletmeye ait apartlarda, tam pansiyon şeklinde konakladılar. Müzik Köyü’nde dinletiler, konserler, atölye çalışmaları, usta-çırak dersleri, söyleşiler ve belgesel film gösterimle- ri yapıldı. Atölye çalışmaları ve dinletiler köy içerisindeki farklı doğal mekanlarda, kimi zaman bir dere kenarında kimi zaman ise örneğin bölgenin en yüksek dağlarından biri olan Babadağ zirvesinde gerçekleştirildi. Hem profesyonel hem de yerel müzisyenler tarafından gerçekleştirilen atöl- ye ve dinletiler ile katılımcılar, çalgı ve müzikal gelenekler konusunda çok farklı perspektiflerden bilgi sahibi oldular. Sadece katılımcılar değil, yerel ve profesyonel tüm müzis- yenler de müzik üzerine sürekli bir bilgi alışverişi içerisinde bulundular. Müziğin salt notadan ibaret olmadığını savunan Müzik Köyü Ekibi olarak bizler, aynı zamanda müziğin sınırsızlı- ğına inanmaktayız. İnsanları ayrıştıran, ötekileştiren, bir- birini anlamaktan uzak hale getiren tüm koşullara karşın, Müzik Köyü ile farklı kültürlerin, farklı müzik kültürlerinin, farklı geleneklerin, farklı müzik türlerini bir araya getirerek bu ayrıştırıcı anlayışa karşı müzik aracılığıyla hem güçlü bir mesaj vermiş olmayı hem de bu anlayışla yepyeni müzikal üretimlere zemin olmayı hedeflemekteyiz. 8 9 Evanthia Reboutsika Evanthia Reboutsika, “Bir Tutam Baharat” “Babam ve Oğlum” ve nice filmlere bestelediği müziklerle tanınan Yunan besteci ve keman sanatçısı, Türkiye’de 2005 yılında gösterime giren, Çağan Irmak yönetmenliğindeki “Ba- bam ve Oğlum” için yaptığı müziklerle, 2006 yılı “Dünya Film Müzikleri ödülü”ne aday gösterilmiş, “Yılın Keşfi” özel ödülünü kazanmıştır. üzik kariyeriniz nasıl başladı?

    UCLA UCLA Historical Journal Title Christians and Pagans in Roman Nea Paphos: Contextualizing the ‘House of Aion’ Mosaic Permalink https://escholarship.org/uc/item/4hb1v94d Journal UCLA Historical Journal, 29(1) ISSN 0276-864X Author Ladouceur, John Publication Date 2018 Peer reviewed eScholarship.org Powered by the California Digital Library University of California Christians and Pagans in Roman Nea Paphos: Contextualizing the ‘House of Aion’ Mosaic John Ladouceur Notre Dame University “Rather than retreats from public life, however, these residences were the forum made private.” —Peter Brown, on the late Roman villa1 Since its chance discovery in 1983 at the site of ancient Nea Paphos, the “House of Aion” floor mosaic has both fascinated and perplexed scholars. Located in the dining room (triclinium) of a wealthy Roman villa, the pavement, which contains five remarkably preserved panels depicting famous scenes from Greco-Roman mythology, is simply stunning in its artistic quality and scope. Constructed during the fourth century CE, the floor is a reflection of the considerable pros- perity of late Roman Cyprus and a window into the private world of a confident Mediterranean elite.2 Yet if the magnificence of the mosaic program has been conceded by all, its interpretation has proven more controversial. Although the scenes themselves are easily identifiable, being explicitly labeled by the artist, their meaning has been vigorously debated.3 Indeed, several prominent scholars, including the head exca- vator of the villa, W. A. Daszewski, have noticed an unsettling pattern in the layout of the panels.4 When read as part of a continuous sequence, the thematic content of these pagan scenes seems to mirror, in exact order, key scenes from the life of Jesus as depicted in the canonical Christian Gospels.

  • A Machine Learning Approach for Clustering Western and Non-Western Folk Music Using Low-Level and Mid-Level Features
    A machine learning approach for clustering western and non-western folk music using low-level and mid-level features Neocleous Andreas1, Panteli Maria1, Rafaela Ioannou1, Nicolai Petkov2, Christos N. Schizas1 1University of Cyprus, Nicosia, Cyprus [email protected], [email protected], [email protected], [email protected] 2University of Groningen, Groningen, The Netherlands [email protected] Abstract. This work describes an unsupervised method for clustering folk music from four non-European eastern countries, western music and folk music of Cyprus. The folk music of Cyprus is consisted by Greek- Cypriot folk music and Turkish-Cypriot folk music. We used low-level and mid-level features for our investigations and we applied two unsupervised methods, the so-called k- means and the self organizing maps for creating cluster maps. From the results we observed that the Greek-Cypriot songs, the Turkish Cypriot songs and the Turkish makams are being clustered from the system in different clusters. Arabic and music from Iran are clustered in the same cluster and music from Syria is clustered together with music of Turkey. Western music is clustered in to two different clusters. Keywords. Computational ethnomusicology, signal processing, timbre, tonality 1 INTRODUCTION The aim of this work is to explore timbre and tonal similarities between folk music of Cyprus, western music and non-western music from, especially, East Mediterranean countries, using a computational approach. Models with K-means and self organizing maps (SOM) were created for clusters 1,2,..,10. in order to inspect the robustness of the results. We used the elbow method [5] for the identification of the optimal number of clusters for the particular problem.

  • Greek Cypriot Wedding Music and Customs: Revival and Identity
    Greek Cypriot Wedding Music and Customs: Revival and Identity Submitted by: EFI IOANNIDOU Supervisors: DR. ANDREW KILLICK, DR. SIMON KEEGAN-PHIPPS THE UNIVERSITY OF SHEFFIELD PhD in Music 21st March 2017 2 ABSTRACT In many cultures, weddings are the most important event in people’s lives. Greek Cypriots use weddings as a means of expressing their identity and linking themselves to their roots, with the conscious aim of preservation of their musical tradition and customs. As a result, weddings are especially important in their musical culture because of the threats to their identity posed by the island’s long history of foreign rule and colonisation. However, an upheaval has occurred in the folk music and customs of Greek Cypriot wedding ceremonies over the last ten years, creating an urgent need for a study of these customs in relation to social, historical and cultural developments in Cyprus. This study has revealed a movement towards music revival that links contemporary practice with the ‘living memory’ of the mid-twentieth century. The thesis is structured in two parts, progressing from the directly observable wedding practices of contemporary Greek Cypriots to the remembered and reconstructed forms of the Greek Cypriot wedding that is now regarded as ‘traditional’. Part One analyses contemporary wedding ceremonies and the choices that newlyweds make in the customs and music of their weddings. Part Two attempts to reconstruct in detail the music and customs of Greek Cypriot wedding ceremonies of the mid-twentieth century from the testimonies of veteran folk musicians and from documentary sources. Besides documenting a tradition that is little known and fast transforming, the study contributes to current discussions in ethnomusicology on themes such as ‘music revivals’ and ‘tradition and identity’.

  • Monsieur Doumani and Reinventing Cypriot Traditional Music
    ‘Our Land is the Whole World’: Monsieur Doumani and Reinventing Cypriot Traditional Music Nicoletta Demetriou Wolfson College, University of Oxford [email protected] The lights went out. A projector began showing old photos of the Cypriot countryside, modified with bright, sometimes neon, colours. A trombone began playing at the back of the room, only to be joined seconds later by a guitar and a tzouras, a plucked string instrument, like a smaller version of a bouzouki. The trio – with the somewhat cryptic name ‘Monsieur Doumani’ – began walking through the crowd, the tables and chairs, towards the stage, still playing, and with the slides and lights still flashing in the direction they were heading. The three men who made up the group, all of them in their early to mid-thirties, funkily dressed – one in a chequered shirt and cap, the second with bright red suspenders, the third one sporting a turban – took their places on stage. They were playing Cypriot traditional songs on instruments that were new for that music, with new arrangements and harmonies, and modified lyrics. ‘Don’t think this is any old kind of traditional music’, the owner of the venue had earlier informed me as he was showing me to my seat. ‘This is Cypriot music all jazzed up’. With this hard-to-define piece of information – a warning? a promise? a threat? – I settled into my seat, behind small tables where other attendees were already enjoying their beer or wine, waiting for the concert to begin. As I was soon to discover, in addition to variations on older songs, Monsieur Doumani were playing new compositions with lyrics that reflected life in present-day Cyprus; one of them, for instance, was about the current financial crisis.

  • Medieval Music©[
    Paul Halsall Listening to Medieval Music©[ Author: Paul Halsall Title: Listening to Medieval Music Date: 1999: last revised 01/18/2000] _______________________________________________________________ In the summer of 1999, I made a concerted effort to get a better grasp of medieval music -- better that is, than that acquired by listening to the odd recording here and there. In this document, I outline the general development of music in proto-Western and Western cultures from the time of the earliest information until the beginning of the tonal era, around 1600. Since I am not a musicologist, this outline derives from reading in secondary sources [see bibliography at the end], information supplied with the better CDs and some online sources. Appreciation of almost all serious music is improved by some effort to understand its history and development -- and indeed until very recently any educated person would have had some music education. In the case of Ancient and Medieval music, such effort is essential to enjoyment of the music, unless appreciation is to go no further that a certain "new age" mood setting. For each major period, I list suggested CDs [and occasionally other types of media] which document or attempt to represent the music. These CDs are not the only ones available to illustrate the musical history of Western civilization, but they are however, the ones I have available.
