    Ali Ufkî - Semâî Efrencî // Ceren Türkmenoğlu

    Ali Ufkî Bey (1610–1675) Wojciech Bobowski or Ali Ufki, was a Polish, later Turkish musician and dragoman in the Ottoman Empire. He translated the Bible into Ottoman Turkish, composed an Ottoman Psalter, based on the Genevan metrical psalter, and wrote a grammar of the Ottoman Turkish language. His musical works are considered among the most important in 17th-century Ottoman music. Semai is an instrumental form in Ottoman classical music, which is similar to the rondo form in Western music. It typically consists of 4 sections, called hane, and each one would be followed by a teslim (refrain). Efrencî, means “European”. The makam (mode) of this piece is “Nishabur”.

    Music of Ottoman-Turkish Women Composers: Acemkürdi Türkü–Altın tasta gül kuruttum by Nimet Hanım

    500 year old Ottoman musical tradition owes much to the contribution of women composers, performers and teachers of Turkish music. The oldest surviving documentations and illustrations of women performing music are from the 16th century. Studying musical activities of Ottoman women helps us both understand the Ottoman tradition and the place of women in the music of modern Turkish society. Performed by: Ceren Turkmenoglu - violin, rebab, bendir, voice Volkan Efe - oud, ney, kemence, voice Michael Harrist - bass, yayli tanbur, bendir, voice Tev Stevig - guitars, tanbur, oud Free, live concert recorded Thursday, March 8, 2018 by Kevin Rogan and Todd DeGarmo. Edited by Kevin Rogan. Concert hosted and produced by Todd DeGarmo, founding director of the Folklife Center at Crandall Public Library and funded in part by the Friends of Crandall Public Library and the New York State Council on the Arts - Folk Arts Program with the support of the NYS Legislature.
