Description
Summary:The Eastern Black Sea Region is distinguished from the other regions of Anatolia with its peculiar climate, people and its specific location on the migration routes. The region shows varieties within itself, too. The type of settlement in the region and founding of the settlements is based on the valley patterns and peculiar topography of the valley systems in the region. This study interprets and evaluates written records compiled by Osman Fikret Topalli. Topalli's notes give information about early 20th century folk music, representing folk culture of Giresun people. Giresun is a northeastern city of Anatolia that has been settled by the Çepni Turks from the 12th century on. The bulk of Topalli's records consist of direct interviews with concerning persons; and the rest rely on witness accounts and experiences. This compilation is a valuable, unique and interesting source of information about baglama and saz artists and other instrument players in Giresun and its vicinity. Thus, analysis of these records would certainly be a valuable addition to the concerning literature.
