Turkish Classical Music: Tribute to Yunus Emre
Various Artists

Beginning in the 19th century, Turkish composers began to use Western music notation to document their classical music. Before then, Turkish music was not notated, being passed by memorization from generation to generation. As a result many compositions were lost to history. For example, only 30 works of Abdülkadir of Maraga, a great 14th-century composer and musicologist, have survived into modern times. This recording by the National Choir of Turkish Classical Music sets to music the works of 13 of Turkey’s greatest poets and composers.
