Beschreibungen/Notizen

• The night called "henna night," which is a part of "marriage" among transitions in Anatolia which are defined as "birth, marriage, and death," is the night before the wedding and it is held with different ceremonies in many parts of Anatolia. Manavs have carried henna night melodies from generation to generation through this peculiar ceremony, which at the same time contain their cultural values. In this study the tunes performed at henna nights -particularly those of Manavs- have been compiled through the techniques of observation and interview based on field research. It is aimed to analyze the compiled melodies in musical and literary terms and to provide information about the musical cultures of Manavs. The melodies of "Amanin Yandim Haci", "Dagdan Keserler Findigi" and "Yaprak Gazeli Yarim", which were compiled from the women of Karaoglan Village and sang at the henna night they held among themselves, were discussed and analyzed from a musical and literary point of view. In addition to the collected tunes, the source people who also gave information about the marriage process stated that the old practices ceased to exist with the beginning of migration to the city, the lack of young people in the villages and the start of new practices. The fact that the collected melodies have been brought to light, keeping our cultural values alive and transferring them to new generations, increases the importance of this work.
