The sheet brings together a named composition and an anonymous traditional song, reflecting the variety of repertoire that was preserved and circulated through printed music publications in Istanbul during the early 20th century.\u003cspan class=\"PDq2pG_selectionAnchor\"\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp dir=\"auto\" data-start=\"644\" data-end=\"1340\"\u003ePublished 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.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp dir=\"auto\" data-start=\"1342\" data-end=\"1805\"\u003eThe first work, Şeb-i Vuslat Hayal Oldu, is attributed to Udi Mehmed Bey and is identified as being in the Mahur makam. The second work, Çeşmenin Üstüne Yatmalı, is marked as anonymous and is identified in the publication as being in the Muhayyer makam. The inclusion of both a named composer and an anonymous work illustrates the range of musical material found in early printed Turkish music and preserves the makam information associated with each composition.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp dir=\"auto\" data-start=\"1807\" data-end=\"2232\"\u003ePublished in Istanbul during the 1920s as No. 807 of the Müntehabat series, this sheet is a notable example of Ottoman Turkish printed musical material from the period. Its combination of Udi Mehmed Bey’s composition with an anonymous repertoire piece, together with the Mahur and Muhayyer makam indications, makes it an interesting document for collectors of Ottoman sheet music, Turkish music and historical music ephemera.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan style=\"color: rgb(170, 26, 23);\"\u003eKey Features:\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp dir=\"auto\" data-start=\"2249\" data-end=\"2307\" class=\"PDq2pG_selectionAnchorContainer\"\u003e• Works: Şeb-i Vuslat Hayal Oldu \u0026amp; Çeşmenin Üstüne Yatmalı\u003cspan class=\"PDq2pG_selectionAnchor\"\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp dir=\"auto\" data-start=\"2309\" data-end=\"2348\"\u003e• Composers: Udi Mehmed Bey \/ Anonymous\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp dir=\"auto\" data-start=\"2350\" data-end=\"2387\"\u003e• First Work: Şeb-i Vuslat Hayal Oldu\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp dir=\"auto\" data-start=\"2389\" data-end=\"2414\"\u003e• First Work Makam: Mahur\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp dir=\"auto\" data-start=\"2416\" data-end=\"2454\"\u003e• Second Work: Çeşmenin Üstüne Yatmalı\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp dir=\"auto\" data-start=\"2456\" data-end=\"2485\"\u003e• Second Work Makam: Muhayyer\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp dir=\"auto\" data-start=\"2487\" data-end=\"2530\"\u003e• Publisher: Kudmanizâde Udî Şamlı İskender\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp dir=\"auto\" data-start=\"2532\" data-end=\"2552\"\u003e• Series: Müntehabat\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp dir=\"auto\" data-start=\"2554\" data-end=\"2571\"\u003e• Series No.: 807\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp dir=\"auto\" data-start=\"2573\" data-end=\"2602\"\u003e• Publication Place: Istanbul\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp dir=\"auto\" data-start=\"2604\" data-end=\"2631\"\u003e• Publication Period: 1920s\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp dir=\"auto\" data-start=\"2633\" data-end=\"2660\"\u003e• Language: Ottoman Turkish\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp dir=\"auto\" data-start=\"2662\" data-end=\"2684\"\u003e• Genre: Turkish Music\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp dir=\"auto\" data-start=\"2686\" data-end=\"2715\"\u003e• Format: Printed Sheet Music\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp dir=\"auto\" data-start=\"2717\" data-end=\"2818\"\u003e• Subject: Udi Mehmed Bey, Anonymous Repertoire, Mahur, Muhayyer and Şamlı İskender Müntehabat Series\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp dir=\"auto\" data-start=\"2820\" data-end=\"3084\" data-is-last-node=\"\" data-is-only-node=\"\"\u003e• Collector Appeal: An early 20th-century Ottoman Turkish printed music publication, No. 807 of the Müntehabat series, preserving two works from different parts of the Turkish music repertoire and representing the historical publishing tradition of Şamlı İskender.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Turkrex Collectables","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":50340953948298,"sku":null,"price":70.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0716\/3687\/7450\/files\/1_c98012af-a0f6-4fbd-845b-3f9a9c3afe61.jpg?v=1790934692","url":"https:\/\/turkrexcollectables.com\/products\/udi-mehmed-bey-ottoman-turkish-1920s-musical-notes-sheet-empire-oud-player","provider":"Turkrex Collectables","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
