Klarnet İbrahim Efendi – Sinemi Sad-pare Ottoman Turkish 1910s Musical Notes Sheet Empire Clarinet

Description:

Sinemi Sad-pare Kıldı is a Turkish classical music composition associated with Klarnet İbrahim Efendi, presented here as an Ottoman Turkish printed sheet from the early 20th century. The work is identified as being in the Karcığar makam and was published in Istanbul during the 1910s by Udcu Kudmanizade Şamlı İskender. This example forms part of the publisher’s Müntehabat series and is identified as No. 392, documenting the systematic publication and circulation of Turkish musical repertoire in printed form.

Published by Kudmanizâde Udî Şamlı İskender, the sheet belongs to the important music publishing tradition associated with the Şamlı İskender family. The family had origins in Damascus and became known in Istanbul by the nickname “Şamlı,” which was also incorporated into the name of the publishing business. During the late Ottoman and early Republican periods, when access to sound recordings, radio and other forms of musical reproduction was limited, printed sheet music provided musicians and music enthusiasts with an important means of learning and preserving musical works. The publications of Şamlı İskender therefore form an important part of the printed musical heritage of the period.

As part of the Müntehabat series, this sheet represents the effort to make individual musical compositions available in a standardized printed format. The Ottoman Turkish script and traditional musical notation preserve the makam information necessary for performance, while the series number provides additional bibliographical information for identifying and cataloguing the publication.

For collectors of Ottoman sheet music, Turkish classical music, Klarnet İbrahim Efendi compositions, Şamlı İskender publications and historical music ephemera, this sheet is a notable example of early 20th-century printed musical material. Its Karcığar makam designation and No. 392 position within the Müntehabat series further add to its documentary and collecting interest.
