SÖYLER SANAT AKADEMİSİ GİTAR DERSLERİ GUITAR Gitar'ın Tarihi ve Özellikleri Hoşgeldiniz, Gitar, günümüzde dünyanın hemem hemen her yerinde yaygın olarak kullanılan telli bir çalgıdır. Genelde Ud veya antik Yunan çalgısı olan Kithara'dan geldiği iddia edilir. Ancak 1960 yılında Dr. Michael Kasha tarafından yapılan araştırmanın sonucunda bu iddiaların yanlış olduğu görülmüştür. Zira Dr. Michael Kasha‘ nın araştırmasına göre evet Ud ve Gitar ortak ataları paylaşırlar ancak birbirlerinden ayrı bir gelişim göstermişlerdir ve Udun günümüz Gitarının evrimine ciddi bir katkısı olmamıştır. Kithara teorisi ise tamamen asılsızdır ve bu iddia için gösterilen tek kanıt Yunanca Kithara ile İspanyolca Guitarra arasındaki kelime benzerliğidir. Oysa Gitar, Kithara'dan farklı türde bir enstrümandır ve isim dışında bir benzerlikleri yoktur. Gitar uzun perdeli bir boyunu, ağaçtan düz bir ses tablası ve düz bir sırtı olan ve genelde yanları eğimli olan bir enstrümandır. Bu özellikleri ile Gitar, kısa saplı, büyük armut biçimli gövdeli ve sırt kısmı yüksek eğimli, keskin açılı ve ayrıntılı pin başına sahip olan, doğuda perdesiz, Avrupa'da ise perde eklenerek kullanılagelen Ud ve Lavta gibi diğer Tanbur'lardan ayrılır. Gitarın tüm temel özelliklerini gösteren en eski enstrüman M.Ö. 1300'lü yıllardan kalma 3300 yıllık Hitit Gitarı'na ait olmakla birlikte Alaca Höyük kalıntılarında bulunmaktadır. Bunun yanı sıra Gitar'ın önce İran yoluyla Arap dünyasına, Araplar'ın İspanya'yı fethiyle de Avrupa'ya geçtiği yaygın bir saptamadır. Mağrip ve Latin Gitar türleri 12. yüzyılda görülmeye başlamıştır. 15. yüzyılda ise Lavta'ya doğru gelişerek Mandola veya Mandora ismini alır. Günümüz gitarının ana çizgilerinin oluştuğu 15. yüzyılda Latin gitarı, mızraplı Vihuela olarak bilinir. 1500’lü yılların sonuna kadar gelişimine devam eden bu enstrüman, bugünkü Gitarın doğmasındaki ilk ibareleri verir. ​ Gitar ezgileri, 16. yüzyıldan 18. yüzyıla kadar Tabulatur (ses perdeleri yerine parmak pozisyonlarını gösteren nota yazım sistemi) biçiminde ya da alfabetik akor sembolleri sistemiyle yazılıyordu. 1586 senesinde ilk Gitar metodu İspanyol Gitarı olarak bilinen 5 çift telli enstrüman içindir. Daha önceki Gitar'a benzer özelliği gösteren çalgılar (Chartar) 4 telli, Vihuela ise 6 çift tellidir. Vihuela’ dan sonra Barok Gitar 5 çift telli; son zamanlarda kullanılan Klasik Gitarlar ise 6 tek tellidir. ​ 19.yüzyılda Gitar'da sesin artmasını sağlayan değişiklikler yapıldı. Gövdesi genişletildi, derinliği azaltıldı, göğüs kapağı ince bir hal aldı.​ 1850'li yıllarda İspanyol usta Antonio Torres‘in gövdenin boyutlarını büyütmesi ve oranlarını yeniden düzenlemesi ile modern Klasik Gitar günümüzdeki şeklini aldı. Bu yeni model enstrümanın sesini, tonunu ve yansımasını ciddi bir şekilde geliştirdi ve kısa bir süre içinde yapım standardı olarak kabul edildi. Günümüze kadar bu tasarım değişmeden kalmıştır. İspanyol usta Torres ile aynı zamanlarda aralarında Chiristan Fredrich Martin’in de olduğu Amerika’ ya göçen Alman göçmenler X-balkonlama ile Gitar yapmaya başladılar. 1900'lerde çelik tel geniş çapta ulaşılabilinir oldu. Çelik teller yüksek ses sağlasa da tansiyonlarının çok yüksek olması Torres tarzına göre çok fazlaydı. Güçlendirilmiş X-balkonlama eşit iş yaptığını kanıtladı ve kısa sürede Çelik Telli Gitar için üretim standardı oldu. ​ 1900' lü yılların sonlarında Orville Gibson oval ses delikli Archtop Gitar yaptı. Çelik Telli Gitar ile Çello'nun birleşimi gibi köprü üstüne hiç kuvvet uygulamıyor doğrudan aşağıya baskı uyguluyordu. Bu durum yukarıların daha özgürce titreşmesini ve dolayısıyla daha yüksek ses üretilmesini sağlıyordu. 1920’lerin erken dönemlerinde tasarımcı Lloyd Loar, Gibson’ a katıldı ve Archtop Caz Gitarı bugünkü f-delikli tanıdık formuna soktu. 1920'lerin sonuna doğru Caz Gitar'a manyetiklerin eklenmesi ile Elektro Gitar doğdu. ​ Burada Perdesiz Gitar'dan da bahsetmek zorundayız. Perdesiz gitar, diğer gitarların aksine tarihi M.Ö. 5000'lere uzanan perdesiz lavta ya da diğer adıyla lut türü bir çalgıdır. Bilinen perdesiz gitarın ilk mucidi Henry Partch'dır. Ancak gerçek anlamda bugünki perdesiz gitarın mucidi bir Türk'tür; klasik gitar versiyonunu, yaptığı müzikte Türk, Arap ve Acem makamlarını çeşitli caz modlarıyla ve farklı blues dizileriyle harmanlayan Erkan Oğur tarafından 1976'da icat edilmiştir. Perdesiz gitarın elektrik versiyonu, batı tampere sistemiyle ifade edilemeyen özel dizi ve makamları çalmak için değil, daha çok bu sisteme göre oluşturulan ve perde düzeninde elde edilemeyen ses renklerini yakalamak için oluşturulmuştur.

SÖYLER SANAT ACADEMY PIANO LESSONS PIANO History & Features of Piano Welcome, Piano; is a stringed instrument with clavy. It is sometimes considered a percussion instrument because it makes a sound when the hammers in the mechanism hit the strings by pressing the keys on the keyboard. The earliest known ancestor of stringed keyboard instruments is a Chinese Ke dating back to year BC 2650. This instrument was approximately 1.5 m long and consisted of 50 strings attached to the top of a wooden box. Each string was made of 81 fibers , and a talented musician could achieve the lower and upper quintet of the string's sound using the right methods. Ke, which was developed later, reached a structure where Moving Bridges are used on 25 strings ; For every 5 strings, a different colored bridge was used. The moving bridge system allowed the expert musician to reach very different sound colors. In Europe, there was Pythagoras's instrument called the Monochord, which he used around BC 500 years to find the mathematical relationships of musical sounds. There was 1 wire fixed on top of a wooden box and it had a scale on which different sound levels were marked by means of a paper placed under the wire. By pulling the string with fingers from different positions where these degrees were shown, sounds of different pitches were obtained. The Greeks often used the Monocord where Roman Empire also used it, especially in the church, to facilitate the entrance of the choir into tone. Guido of Arezzo adapted Moving Bridges for the instrument to make the intonation precise. The movable bridge also accelerated other innovations that would follow, and the Klavis (Keyboard) was added to the Monochord, where strings were increased. Each key on Klavis had its own plectrum; When the key was pressed, the plectrum would pull the string and release it from a point suitable for the pitch of the sound to be obtained. Klavis allowed the number of strings to increase in a short time. 12th and 13th centuries. With the trials, it was aimed that the instrument would have the ability to give all sounds. These trials gave birth to an instrument called Clavicytherium. The instrument thought to have been discovered in Italy in 1300 and was developed in Germany. The strings were arranged in a triangle, as on the Harp, and were drawn with feather plectrums fixed to the tip of the Clavi's . Clavicytherium also developed and formed the Clavichord. The first clavichord models, produced in the 15th century, were based on a system in which the strings were not pulled with a plectrum, but vibrated, unlike other instruments. They had 20-22 metal wires. The clavichord, which was highly developed at the end of the 16th century and the beginning of 17th century, had become the most popular instrument of its time. Even after the invention of Pianoforte in the 18th century, the clavichord remained popular for a long time. In 1503, Giovanni Spinetti of Venice invented a new rectangular, four-octave stringed keyboard instrument. The rectangular structure allowed the soundboard to expand and the strings to be longer; Spinetti covered almost the entire surface with wires. However, the long strings did not allow the plectrum to touch the strings directly; In order to obtain sound, the plectrum had to pull the string and let it go. This instrument was named the Spinet after its inventor . While the models produced by Spinetti were out of the keyboard instrument, after 1550 Rossi of Milan developed models that included the keyboard in the instrument. Spinet evolved into the winged Harpsichord. In 1579, a third set of strings was added, resonating from an upper octave. In the 17th century, it was in a position to compete with the most popular instrument of the period, the lute. In the years that followed, it became Europe's most popular instrument and profoundly influenced composing techniques. In France , composers focused on this instrument such as Chambonniéres and Louis Couperin, together with their followers Jean-Philippe Rameau and François Couperin, formed the famous French Harpsichord School. The instrument deeply influenced the Bach family in Germany and the Italian composer Scarlatti in Spain. Florentine Bartolomeo Cristofori invented a new musical instrument in 1711. It was possible to make both light sounds and strong sounds on this instrument. Therefore, it is called Piano e forte, which means light and strong in Italian. The sounds of the piano, which is considered a new invention, were obtained by the small sounds covered with leather, actuated by the keys and hitting the strings. The mechanism of the instrument included small hammers in the number of sounds, the levers that actuate those hammers, and a silencer cloth section that stopped the strings from vibrating. After that, each part of the piano was developed by examining and working on them separately, and today's perfect pianos were presented to us. The sound width of the modern piano consists of seven octaves, from the deep “la” to the thin “do”, and a minor triad. However, six and a half octaves is enough to play classical piano literature. A standard piano has a total of 88 keys, 52 white keys and 36 black keys . It is divided into two as console type piano and grand piano. However, nowadays, digital pianos are also preferred because they are economical and ergonomic. The piano has pedals as well as keys. Therefore, it is an instrument played with both hands and feet. ​ You can learn to play the piano or improve your current level by taking Private Piano Lessons, One-to-One Group Piano Lessons, or Online Private Piano Lessons from our valuable teachers and instructors at Söyler Art Academy. ​ One-to-One Piano Lessons (Private or Group) One-to-One Piano Lessons are given in our Beşiktaş, İstanbul - Turkey and West Bay, Doha - Qatar branches.

SÖYLER SANAT AKADEMİSİ KAVAL DERSLERİ KAVAL Kaval'ın Tarihi ve Özellikleri Welcome, Kaval is one of our Turkish origin national instruments and was first widely used by the Saka and Scythian Turks around 800 B.C., who lived between the Ural - Altai regions, and spread to Anatolia, the Middle East and the Balkans with the Migration of Tribes. German musicologist Curts Sachs also stated that Kaval is a Turkish instrument. In the archaeological excavations carried out in a kurgan tomb belonging to the Hun Turks in 1933 in the Jonoshid region of Hungary , an ötkeçin which is a double Kaval made of bone belonging to Turkish shepherds was found. Hungarian Denes Van Bartha examining this woodwind instrument dating from the Migration of Tribes era with its many types, confirmed that the spreading center of the Kaval instrument is the region between Ural and Altai, and it has also been confirmed that this instrument is one of the oldest civilization products belonging to the Turks. Kaval is derived from the word kav, meaning hollow thing. This name, which was ascribed to the instrument thousands of years ago, includes a common concept in the Turkish language that is generally unique to all wind instruments. The word Kaval was also used in Central Asian Balasagun Turks. It is called Khoval in the Crimean dialect, Khaval in the Chagatai dialect, Kabak Kaval in Azerbaijani, and Kaval, Gaval, Goval or Guvval in Anatolia. Kaval, which was first made of reed, later started to be made from horns and bones of animals and then from hardwoods. After the quintet sounds in the Pentatonic System were obtained , which is the system of Asian music, they emerged as 5 holes, the number of holes was increased to 8 in time. Today, it is manufactured with 1 hole at the bottom and 7 holes at the top. There are 2 types as Dilli Kaval and Dilsiz Kaval. On Dilli Kaval there is a whistle aparat at the tip of the pipe that provides sound production. The Dilsiz Kaval on the other hand, is a hollow pipe and the player produces the desired sound with breathing - blowing techniques. You can learn how to play Kaval or improve your current level by taking One-to-One Private Kaval Lessons or One-to-One Group Kaval Lessons or Online Private Kaval Lessons from our distinguished teachers and masters at Söyler Sanat Academy. ​ One-to-One Kaval Lessons (Private or Group) One-to-One Kaval Lessons are permanent at our Beşiktaş, İstanbul - Turkey branch.

SÖYLER SANAT AKADEMİSİ ​UD DERSLERİ OUD Ud'un Tarihi ve Özellikleri Welcome, Oud is a stringed instrument widely used in Turkey, Turkic Republics, Iran, Arab countries and the Balkans today. The origin of the word Oud comes from El-Oud, which means aloe vera or oxwood in Arabic. In some sources, it is said that Farabi ( 871-952) invented the Oud, but long before Farabi, there are Oud and similar instruments were illustrated in miniatures and reliefs. Oud, whose history dates back to the 19th and 20th dynasties in ancient Egypt, gained its current structure in the 10th century. Oud entered Europe in two ways, from Spain via Andalusia and then from the Balkans via the Seljuks and Ottoman Empire. Europeans came to know the Oud during the Crusades between the 11th and 13th centuries and during their struggle with Andalusia and named this instrument, which they took to Europe and named as Luth in French, Lute in English, Laute in German, Liuto or Alaut in Italian, Laúd or Luit in Spanish. Lute and Guitar are instruments derived from Oud. The main reason why Farabi is perceived as the inventor of the Oud is that he was a musician who has mastered the Oud and the tuning system he brought to the Oud. Farabi, who was one of those who gave the most comprehensive information about the Oud in his period, added the 5th string to the Oud, which was a 4-string instrument until that time. In this period, there were curtain ties on the handle of the oud and these were abandoned towards the end of the 10th century. It is not known when the thickest string, called the Bam string, was added, but it is thought to have been added by the Anatolian Turks. This string was worn under the highest strings until the first quarter of the 20th century. In 1954, this string was placed on top of the lowest strings by Cafer Açın, and all strings were arranged from bottom to top, from treble to low. There are four types of tuning for oud strings, which are as follows: 1) The traditional five-stringed Oud (from thin to thick); sol-re-la-mi-re; 2) Contemporary six-stringed Oud (in the same order): sol-re-la-mi-re-la ( Targan sometimes used this thick la as a deep Sol depending on the piece he is going to play); 3) Bacanos' the change made by Bacanos as; sol-re-la-mi-si-fa; 4) Cinuçen Tanrıkorur's tuning system as; sol-re-la-mi-si-bass mi The production of the Oud, which consists of five basic elements, namely the hull (body), chest (cover), neck, pegs and strings, starts from the hull, as can be seen in the element order.​ Oud's hull; 70 cm long , 2 to 4 cm wide and 3 mm thick slices of leaves or circles on a mold consisting of 4-5 cm thick pieces glued in width and length, resembling a ship's hull , mostly between them - both for aesthetics and durability - with a contrast colored single or by placing double fillets and processing. In its classical construction, the hull is usually made of mahogany, walnut, paduk, vengi, butterfly, rarely plum or olive wood. Today, the Oud hull made of; walnut, mahogany, plum, apricot, maple, cherry, or imported woods such as magase, vengi, rosewood. The most important is the top plate, as in the violin. In order to be successful in sound, the table or also called as the chest , must be made of high quality and very dry spruce wood. However, the plate should not be thick to get a nice and soft sound.

SÖYLER SANAT AKADEMİSİ ​YAN FLÜT DERSLERİ SIDE FLUTE Flüt'ün Tarihi ve Özellikleri Welcome, Flute is one of the most popular instruments in various forms in many parts of the world. They have been used as instruments since 50,000 years, usually made of bone or horn, on which there are only enough holes to play 2-3 notes. In this respect, it is one of the oldest instruments and has continued its development in different regions, with different mechanisms and names, by going through various evolutions. Contrary to popular belief, the Side Flute is not a European instrument and its one single piece and non mechanical oriented first version with today's system dates back to China around 900 BC. However, the Side Flute that was made with only 6 holes at that time. The Side Flute first reached India and became the widely used Bansuri, and entered Europe in the 12th century, to the areas where the Saxons lived . For this reason, the Side Flute is also called as German Flute. The Side Flute was redesigned in Europe in the 1600s as 3 pieces linked together. As time went on the Side Flutes begun to be made of metal and more holes were added. Until the middle of the 19th century, sound was obtained by closing the holes on the flute with fingers, and these holes had to be far from each other in order to obtain a better sound, so it was difficult to perform. Finally, the German Flutist Theobald Boehm combined his knowledge of mechanics, physics and art in 1832 and developed today's modern flute system and arrangement using vices, levers and caps. For this reason , the name Boehm Flute is also used for the Side Flute.

SÖYLER SANAT AKADEMİSİ BAĞLAMA DERSLERİ BAĞLAMA Bağlama'nın Tarihi ve Özellikleri Welcome, Bağlama; According to the international instrument classification system (Sachs-Horbostel), belongs to the class of long-luthes. These types of instruments, which have a smaller body than the neck, have a long history. The first source in which long-necked lutes are seen historically is 3000 B.C. during the Akkadian period. According to L. Picken , the main source of long -necked lutes is Syria and its surroundings. Especially in the beginning of 2000 B.C., smaller long-necked lutes have been found in the Eastern Mediterranean, Mesopotamia, and East Asia. This type of instruments probably passed to Asia 2500 years ago. Because during this period, similar instruments were also encountered in Turkistan and China. Among the Asian Turks, the first examples similar to Bağlama were found in the Khakas region, which was the settlement area of the former Kyrgyz Turks. These two stringed examples do not have frets. The fretted examples of this instrument are called dutar ( ikitelli) today. In general, Asian Turks call the Bağlama type stringed instruments kopuz or komis. In Asian kopuzes, those with more than two strings (meaning tanbura) are called dambra or dombra. Georgians call this type of instruments pandur. This relationship and similarities draw our attention to the closeness and prevalence between pandura and tanbura. Today, especially starting from the Balkans, which appeared in the region extending to Anatolia, Syria, Iraq, Georgia, Armenia, Azerbaijan and Asia It is understood that the Ottoman Turks were influential in the spread of these instruments. It is seen that the naming, which used to change from two strings to twelve strings and was made according to the number of strings, gradually took the place of the naming according to the length of the instrument, the chord in which it was played or the place where it was played. For example, cura, ırızva, bağlama, bozuk, tanbura, çöğür, divan saz, meydan saz. Names such as bağlama, bozuk indicate both a particular genre and a chord. Examples such as the divan saz and the meydan saz are examples of nomenclatures that also evoke the spatial size of the instrument. You can learn how to play Bağlama or improve your current level by taking One-to-One Private Bağlama Lessons or One-to-One Group Bağlama Lessons or Online Private Bağlama Lessons from our distinguished teachers and masters at Söyler Sanat Academy.

Music School Instrument Lessons One-to-One Lessons Online Lessons ENTE R Ney Manufacturing Turkish Neys Arabian Neys All about Ney ENTER Stringed instruments Bowed instruments Wind instruments Percussion instruments ENTER Turkish Music Scales Song-Folk-Hymn-Saying Note Archive ENTER Hello ! Neyzen SİNAN SÖYLER Me, My Team and What We Do... ​ Hi there; First of all, welcome and thank you for visiting our site. If you allow me, let me tell you a little about myself, in case there are some of you wondering who this Sinan Söyler is... Those who know me a little bit will say that I am a very social person. In addition, many of you know that I have been a Tekke Lodge member that has been going on for a long time. Yes, this is a Sinan Söyler who has fellow dervish friends and walks on the path of dervishhood. When people first hear this, they may find it a little strange, wondering how such a modern-looking musician can become a Tekke member. At least I can say this, if there were no Tekke Lodge, Tekke Lodge Literature and Tekke Lodge Music, it would be almost impossible for us to carry our centuries-old musical and literary culture to this day. ​ I was born in Istanbul , my family came from Malatya Pütürge and settled in Istanbul 4 generations ago. We are 4 siblings, I have 1 older sister, 1 older brother and 1 younger sister. I am someone who has been involved with music since my childhood, so much so that I will never forget, I had a Walkman that I bought when I was 10-11 years old, I would put on headphones at night and listen to Dede Efendi and Tamburi Cemil Bey and fall asleep like that. Would you believe this is still the case, I cannot fall asleep otherwise. Maybe this is why I was not interested in lessons other than music during my school years and unfortunately, I was not a very successful student. For this reason, I was even able to graduate from high school externally. ​ ​ I entered the music world at a very early age. With the encouragement of my brother, who is also a musician and studied Vocal and Qanun at Istanbul Technical University State Conservatory , I became a regular member of the Bağcılar Association for the Preservation and Sustenance of Turkish Sufi Music in Istanbul , which operates within the Federation of Turkish Sufi Music Associations , as soon as I finished primary school. My first encounter with the Ney instrument was here. In fact, my first Ney was given to me as a gift by my esteemed teacher and spiritual elder here, Albay Ahmet . I took theoretical and practical lessons on Turkish Music and the Ney instrument, with an emphasis on Sufi Music . While I was playing the Ney as a basic instrument, I also started to learn how to play the Oud instrument. I was even very good at playing the oud. However, with the suggestions of my esteemed masters, I decided to give priority to my main instrument. At the end of my first 2 years in the association, I made a good progress in Ney and at the age of 15, I attracted the attention of Turkiye's leading Neyzens and I took lessons from our well-known Ney masters Neyzen Ömer Erdoğdular , and Prof. Dr. Neyzen Ali Tan . I was a good student when it came to music, but I guess I was also naughty. That's why my dear teacher Neyzen Ömer Erdoğdular kicked me out of the class three times. When I was expelled, I would go to my esteemed teacher Neyzen Ali Tan and knock on his door. Thanks to him, he would never turn me away and would take me in and make me sit next to him. After I was kicked out of the class for the last time by my dear teacher Neyzen Ömer Erdoğdular, we continued to advance my lessons with my dear teacher Neyzen Ali Tan. I had the opportunity to participate in tours and concerts organized by many organizations at home and abroad within the scope of Bağcılar Turkish Sufi Music Preservation and Sustainability Association. During my first trip abroad, I took part as Neyzen in an international tour that included Frankfurt , Mannheim , Heidelberg , Stuttgart in Germany and Strasbourg , Paris and Valence in France . Thanks to this institution, I had the opportunity to chat and practice with many of our masters in friendly meetings. Therefore, this institution has a very special place for me both in my personal life and in my music career. I am currently a member of this organization. I participate in the practices of the association and the organizations of the institution as Neyzen. ​
