Abstract
The fundamental change of music and musical life in Turkey already began in the early 19th century with the beginning and still ongoing replacement of the traditional teaching method meşk by new emerging media including notation, later 78rpm records, teaching method books, radio, tv, audio cassettes; further by the foundation of public music institutions such as conservatories. Kemalist ideology loaded both Western and Turkish folk music with heavy ideological burdens, but also supported both, while the early Turkish Republic at the same time tryed to impede traditional Ottoman music. The urbanisation beginning in the 1950s (and slightly later, the growing international migration), brought Anatolian folk music into Turkish (and European) cities, and gave path to the emergence of new forms of hybrid popular music such as Anatolian Rock and in particular Arabesk. After the coup d'etat of 1980, a new wave of neo-capitalism opened the musical life further, in particular that of popular music (pop müzik, hiphop). At latest during the 1990s, a great number of musical revivals took places, most of them fostered by emerging identity discourses (Ottoman music, Armenian music, Alevi music, Kurdish music, Laz music, etc.). The 21st century witnessed a further enrichment of the already wide musical plurality in particular in the 'global city' Istanbul, however, more and more characterized by a strong commercialization. Over the first decades of being in power, the AKP hardly showed any serious interest in music, while the growing commercialization seems to limit the role of music more and more to the accompaniment of TV serials.
