DANCES AND RHYTHMS OF TURKEY
of Yesterday and Today
THE MOGOL
Four young Turks from different Anatolian villages met and became friends during the 1960s, discovering in common their taste both for the traditional music of their land and for the new kind of music that Europe called “pop”. Their names were Murat Ses, Cahit Berkay, Taner Ongur, and Engin Yörükoğlu – all of them skilled musicians playing traditional Turkish instruments, to which they had added guitar, piano, and organ by the time they launched themselves as a group in 1967. THE MOGOL (Mogollar in their language) immediately leaped to the top place in the Turkish Hit Parade – an honor that had normally been reserved for British and American successes.
Ever since then, the group has remained the most popular in its own country. Their kind of music, based on the exotic folklore heritage of Anatolia, enriched by modern rhythms merged with the impassioned strains of the Turkish national idioms, stimulated the formation of numerous other new groups. Even to the limits of the remotest Turkish villages, Anatolian “pop” has achieved an immense public following. We are happy indeed to be the first to introduce it to you.
THE PRINCIPAL TRADITIONAL TURKISH INSTRUMENTS
The iklig and the yayli tanbur are stringed instruments played with bows. The baglama is also stringed but plucked, and the cura is similar to it but smaller. The davul, historically represented in ancient Hittite sculptures, is a kind of large drum played with two sticks, one very slender and the other thicker. The darbuka is a small drum, formerly made of earthenware but nowadays of sheepskin stretched on a metal frame. The kasik are wooden spoons, as used in the kitchen, but also serve as percussion instruments.
