Description

This anthology on the musical history, dissemination and cultural dynamics of the Turkish Bağlama is a comprehensive, richly documented and excellent compilation of 16 individual contributions that deal with the now world-famous string instrument of the saz-long-necked lute family from a variety of perspectives. The volume describes the multifaceted developments of a musical instrument that - once out of the hands of farmers, nomads, dervishes and poet singers - has in recent decades become a virtuoso instrument of the World Music.
