Hola

A question for our turkish friends in the forum. Can anybody help me with some turkish scales or maqamat in user form? Like Bayati, hijaz or other maqamat.

Greetz,

Jano

No turkish bro's in the forum?? jeee!!

Try Google - for example http://www.hinesmusic.com/What_Are_Makams.html

For Turkish scales you need over 3 colleges and 3 Masters degrees...thats why
we dont respond cuz most of us have no clue, Turkih music has over 600 scales.

lol nedim !

I need only bayati and hijaz or maybe saba and shuri, I don't ask for a complete study!! Those two maqams doesn't sound like those we use in arabic music. I've heard guys playing those scales on youtube, it's amazing. In arabic music we use twice -50 on user scale for rast and bayat, I think in turkish music they use more scale tuning.

Nedim can you help on this one plz??

Greetz,

Theoretically i am not really literate about that stuff even though i use it, a lot
of times we also use PB to achieve Detuning. Some scale are -75 and some -25
while in Arabic i think its mostly based on -50...and sometimes we have even
3-4 Detuned notes, not just 2 like in most Arabic. Lets see if someone explains.

Hello Jano!
If you want to play Bayat (named usak in turkish, since you want to learn the turkish way), rast in La, simply tune F# -50 and B -50
Hijaz doesnt use any quarter tones, but you can learn all these maqams with notes.
To play Sega, beyat etc. Tune D# -54, F# -54, B -54.
I'm sorry that I couldnt explain better for you right now, and I dont think it will be explained better neither, nor will you learn maqam theory in minutes.

Your sincerely,
Ronny
