Both works belong to the instrumental repertoire of Turkish classical music and represent the semaî form, an important form within the traditional fasıl repertoire. The inclusion of two compositions by different composers on the same printed sheet provides an interesting example of the repertoire being circulated through early 20th-century music publications.\u003cspan class=\"PDq2pG_selectionAnchor\"\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp dir=\"auto\" data-start=\"616\" data-end=\"1312\"\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=\"1314\" data-end=\"1721\"\u003eThe first work is Yusuf Paşa’s Hüzzam Semaî, while the second is Aziz Dede’s Yegâh Semaî. Their different makam identities, Hüzzam and Yegâh, demonstrate the variety of modal repertoire preserved through printed notation. As physical musical documents, such publications provided musicians with access to established compositions and helped maintain the transmission of traditional Turkish music repertoire.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp dir=\"auto\" data-start=\"1723\" data-end=\"2117\"\u003ePublished in Istanbul during the 1910s as No. 1007, this sheet represents an early example of printed Ottoman Turkish musical notation. Its two semaî compositions, association with important figures of Turkish classical music and connection to the publishing tradition of Şamlı İskender make it an appealing historical document for collectors of Ottoman sheet music and Turkish classical music.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan style=\"color: rgb(170, 26, 23);\"\u003eKey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=\"2134\" data-end=\"2169\" class=\"PDq2pG_selectionAnchorContainer\"\u003e• Works: Hüzzam Semaî \u0026amp; Yegâh Semaî\u003cspan class=\"PDq2pG_selectionAnchor\"\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp dir=\"auto\" data-start=\"2171\" data-end=\"2205\"\u003e• Composer: Yusuf Paşa \/ Aziz Dede\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp dir=\"auto\" data-start=\"2207\" data-end=\"2246\"\u003e• First Work: Hüzzam Semaî – Yusuf Paşa\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp dir=\"auto\" data-start=\"2248\" data-end=\"2274\"\u003e• First Work Makam: Hüzzam\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp dir=\"auto\" data-start=\"2276\" data-end=\"2314\"\u003e• Second Work: Yegâh Semaî – Aziz Dede\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp dir=\"auto\" data-start=\"2316\" data-end=\"2342\"\u003e• Second Work Makam: Yegâh\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp dir=\"auto\" data-start=\"2344\" data-end=\"2357\"\u003e• Form: Semaî\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp dir=\"auto\" data-start=\"2359\" data-end=\"2402\"\u003e• Publisher: Kudmanizâde Udî Şamlı İskender\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp dir=\"auto\" data-start=\"2404\" data-end=\"2422\"\u003e• Series No.: 1007\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp dir=\"auto\" data-start=\"2424\" data-end=\"2453\"\u003e• Publication Place: Istanbul\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp dir=\"auto\" data-start=\"2455\" data-end=\"2482\"\u003e• Publication Period: 1910s\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp dir=\"auto\" data-start=\"2484\" data-end=\"2511\"\u003e• Language: Ottoman Turkish\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp dir=\"auto\" data-start=\"2513\" data-end=\"2545\"\u003e• Genre: Turkish Classical Music\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp dir=\"auto\" data-start=\"2547\" data-end=\"2576\"\u003e• Format: Printed Sheet Music\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp dir=\"auto\" data-start=\"2578\" data-end=\"2646\"\u003e• Subject: Yusuf Paşa, Aziz Dede, Hüzzam, Yegâh and Semaî Repertoire\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp dir=\"auto\" data-start=\"2648\" data-end=\"2872\" data-is-last-node=\"\" data-is-only-node=\"\"\u003e• Collector Appeal: An early 20th-century Ottoman Turkish printed music publication containing two classical semaî compositions by Yusuf Paşa and Aziz Dede, representing the historical publishing tradition of Şamlı İskender.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Turkrex Collectables","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":50340903420042,"sku":null,"price":75.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0716\/3687\/7450\/files\/1_c6cb6f32-15b2-44d9-bdb8-50e17c7fcbad.jpg?v=1790934124","url":"https:\/\/turkrexcollectables.com\/products\/yusuf-pasa-aziz-dede-ottoman-turkish-1910s-musical-notes-sheet-empire-pechrev","provider":"Turkrex Collectables","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
