THE NEY

 

What's History

HISTORY AND etymology of the word NEY NEY

Sümerce from Persian 'or the "NA" or "nay", cane, spear in the meaning of this instrument is the oldest name. In Arab society, almost all used for the wind "mizmâr" word, (breathing tube, a sound body means) is used for what. English 'is also almost always "what" as is. Various European countries with similar names (for example, in Romania "naiu" name) is called.

Persian played, which means that execution "Zedek" word jewelry created by "neyzen" by corruption, what is used today in the sense icrâcısı "neyzen" e has become. According to the rules created in the same Arabic "nâyî" word is used.

Have been used since 5000 BC in Sumer in the community thought that our most ancient findings belong to the instrument, the remaining years, 2800-3000 BC University Museum Phledelphia in America today, at what is exhibited. In that period the religious ceremony of the instrument is thought to have been used. Thibaut Assomption of priests' un "enigmatic, Temptations, sweet and harmonious sound," he defined this way and what poetry sadâsı, deeply affect people in every period, especially the religious feelings are associated:

"When you pass over Cane,

A sweet breeze to match the wings of birds çırpınış of fear ".

What this feature Sadâsından relations in every society have made an important instrument. The Turks started to use it in conjunction with the adoption of what İslâmiyet, Xlll. century since has become the symbol of Islamic mysticism. This brought great mutasavvıf this century, philosophers, poets and parents Mevlana Celaleddin-i Rumi's role is greater.

XV. century, a traveler who has lived Gıyaseddin NAKKAŞ Coach 's writing a note seyahatnâmesinde to develop their use in particular we know Hıtay Turks' s see the palace is a very interesting hâkanlık:

"Sadinfu city in front of the palace hâkanlık men and women had gathered up üçyüzbin. Then edit the same sound as İkibin instrument sâzende (and harmonize), were praying in unison hâkana. On either side of Kos kemençe, ney, saz and other mûsikâr with hânendeler were seated. Some of what is known Neyzen play, and some were blown from the hole in the middle. "

They go too far Mûsikînin known Hıtay Turks' s what, Central Asia since the use of old and even they agree it is just blowing like a flute.

Nay-ı Türkî in history, Hoş Nay (or Run Ney), referred to with names such as Kurre Nay structure and features of today do not know exactly what the name was derived from the many instruments are available. Instrument used as a place, however, the current form of this instrument are very different you think you are.

NEY 'IN TURKISH Mystical Thought' ndeki PLACE

Turkish Islam process X. century began. Together with the already existing İslâmiyet in society impersonation by an Islamic mystical thought and understanding, Turkish Sufism, formed the basis of understanding. Hoca Ahmet Yesevî, Hacı Bektaş-i Veli, and this understanding of Mevlana Celaleddin-i Rumi's life in the Turkish community had to.

Shamanism is the religion of Turks before İslâmiyetten, animism, and had a crucial role Mûsikînin in Totemizm. That all religions in the ceremonies were accompanied by music. For example, judges are often sung in Shamanism, shamans, called baksı or clergy to walk with lute in hand, used to transmit religious messages with the help of music. There is also one front against İslâmiyette Mûsikînin. Islamic Prophet Hz.Muhammed, Kuran 's beautiful voice and was advised to read kâideye müstenîd harmonious. As a result of this demand Tecvîd and Kıraat was born and has a close relationship with music.

Turks always have music in the religious life. Monopolies, especially in the lives of the month and in other religious ceremonies (cem, remembrance, circulation etc.). Mûsikînin a much greater role in religious ceremony to take place of the strings is not cevâz. However, what with almost all the religious ceremony took place in bendir.

What is a very big Mevlevîlikte particular importance. Hz. Mevlânâ Mesnevi 'sine began with these words:

"Bişnev ez hikâyet what you küned cun

Ez mi cüdâyîhâ complaint küned

Ta bübrîde end neyistân pasture tour

Ez zen nefîrem tin end Merdin ü

Sine hâhem Serhan Serhan ez Fira

Ta-i begûyem şerh derd-i iştiyâk "

"Listen, from what, because it describes something in the

Separation of complain.

Ney says: Since they are taken away from me kamışlık,

My wailing women - men everyone was crying.

Riddle me scream separation action, the

Ta explained that the problem can love. "

Hz. Mevlânâ to music by Allah 'ın lisânıdır. Holy creative Bezm-i Elest in spirit with the music was calling. Therefore, what nationalities, what language they are from, people can share music with the same feelings. No other art directly and through people until rûhuna music to understand it can not penetrate. Music is extremely valuable, a spiritual being cleaned, and elevate the vâsıtasıdır relief. Clear of dirt and rust Rûhu, as it was sinking out of the thorns is the treatment. Are not clear and can not raise the spirit of music, but where pollution and the spread of rust in the pretty glow. To remember his real music to people let alone animals, her "eternal presence" is the feeling, is appreciable. With this intuition it O ', and finally leads to the approach. This is the most effective voice sadâsıdır what.

Hz. Mevlânâ of what fesefesinde, "human-ı Kamil" in (ie, passes through the mature stage a team of people) is a symbol of love and tell trouble. Sallow, was discharged inside, yelling through the mountains holes were opened, but the Supreme Creative 'the wind's blowing finds life, just like people came to the place miss and was full of holes and sînesinden the feryâd with moaning people whispering secrets to a friend. For this reason, what, mevlevîlerce blessed and "nay-i Serif," he was an.

"What hadis-i rah-i Pür hun mîküned

-T-i Mecnun Kıssahâ isk mîküned "

"What, in talking about a road full of blood,

Mad 'un tell stories of love. "

"Fire-i ışkest ke'ender what fütâd

Cûşiş-i ışkest ke'ender mey fütâd "

"Love is a fire in what has come down,

Do ki fell in love with fervor. "

"We confirmed that CU did what zehrî vu

CU And what did that müştâkî ü demsâz "

"Like what the poison and antidote,

Ney and hemdem like, and who saw müştâkı? "

According to Rumi music is the language of God, and the great creator has addressed to souls through music.  Hence, people can share their feelings through music without considering any nationality, language and religion discriminations.  Music is the only art that can influence and seize in to humans’ souls directly.  Music is a bridge to spiritual clinsing, pleasure and exalting.  Furthermore, music is able to clean the rusts of humans’ soul.  A soul that has not been affected by music can not rise, and gets involve with greed and deteriorates.  A true music leads man to feel and perceive the infinite being.  This perception brings man near to divine and causes to reach almighty.  Sound of reed (ney) is the most effective part of this process.

Based on Rumis’ philosophy reed is the symbol of perfect man and explains the pain of love.  Reed is a companion of human, like human it misses it roots and shares secrets with human through moan and cry.  That’s why reed has been blessed by Rumis’ followers and has been considered “honorable reed”

 

Reeds Components

Reed

Reed is a music instrument in the shape of cylinder with open top and bottom parts.

Sound can be obtained by compressing air into Bash Pare (The upper part of reed).  The compressed air produces a kind of natural vibration by passing through fibered channel.  It is a wrong idea that reeds with extreme thick or thin diameters can produce a high quality sound. Some inexperienced reed players believe that very thick bamboo can produce better sound.  This is a wrong approach, the ideal diameter of the reeds are calculated based on their length.  These data are given in the form of tables.  As much as the diameter of reed increases its outer surface gets thicker.  For small reeds a bamboo with a thick diameter can not produce very high-pitched octavial sounds easily.  In reed production, the most favorite bamboos are those obtained from Asi River and Saman Mountain in the Hatay province of Turkey.  Besides Turkey Bamboo of reeds are produced in Nile River and in some regions of Syria too. The bamboos are used for producing reeds are selected among October and November.  The cut bamboos in these months are completely grown and absorbed enough waters.  They should be smooth; their barks should not be yellow and have a distance of 7-8 cm between their joints equally.  The bamboo that are not grown completely and those that are very thin or have very thick fiber should not be cut. Bamboos with bright outer surface and without any spot are the most appropriate ones. Bamboos used for reeds should be measured based on a 9 joint scale on them.  On 6th, 7th and 8th joints, two holes should be provided.  The distance between joints will be usually decreased from root to the upper parts.  In these bamboos the upper halves will be used to produce reeds.  There are some bamboos obtained from roots with regular and frequent joints.  These bamboos can produce high quality sounds

 

Parazvane

Parazvanes are rings shaped pieces obtained from mines, that are used in upper and bottom part of a reed.  The thickness of Parazvane should not be more than 0, 50 mm.  Its most important function is to protect the upper and lower parts of the reeds against breaking.  Those parts are the thinnest parts of the reeds.  Attaching Baspare should be affixed tightly to prevent air to escape.  At this stage, parazvane is the part that strengthens the reed.  That’s why the Parazvane should be tight and resistant.  Parazvane also adds some beauty to the reed. The length of Parazvane is about 1- 1,5 cm.  The Parazvane that is used in sound-box of the reeds should not be very long.  In order to save the resonance of bamboo, it should be protected carefully.  Since the sound-box of the reed affects the quality of the sound directly, using long metal pieces will lower the sounds’ quality.  A Parazvane with a maximum length of 1cm should be used in this part.  At the bottom part of the reed, a Parazvane with a length of 1,5-2 cm can be used.  Gold, silver, alpaca, brass can be used in producing parazvane.  Due to its resistance against oxidation alpaca is the most favorite. 

 

Baspare (Bashpare)

Baspare is a piece that is installed on the sound-box of the reed.  It can only be found in Anatolian reeds. The Baspare that is shown in the picture below was produced from buffalos’ horn.  Ivory, ebony tree, box wood, derlin and fiber can also be used to produce Baspare.  Ivory made Baspare can be found in some reeds remaining from Ottoman Empire period.  Raising buffalo is very common in Turkey.  In Afyon, Samsun, Kastamonu buffalos are more valued due to their milk and yogurt. That’s why they aren’t slaughtered for their horns early.  Therefore, obtaining buffalos’ horn is very difficult.  Working on buffalos’ horn on lathe in producing Baspare is a difficult job also.  That is the main reason that buffalo horn is used rarely in producing Baspare.  Instead of buffalo horn Derlin is used frequently since it can be found and utilized easily.  Derlin is a substance that has a high quality based on the quality of sound.  Derlin is a highly compressed plastic substance that doesn’t produce any sent and it is advantageous according to hygiene.  Derlin, which is sold in cylinder shaped pieces, can be used efficiently on lathe to produce Baspares’ types.  Fiber is also used by some reed producers, however, due to producing sent and considering cancerogen substance is not frequently preferred.  Different kinds of trees are used in producing Baspare in inexpensive reeds.  Among them Box-wood is the most favorite one.  Different approaches are used in producing Baspare.  Some producers are preferred Baspare with flat part, where as others prefer a lower part with 1-1, 5-2mm indentations.  The part of Baspare that goes to the sound box on Reed is produced slightly conic. The conic part reduces the risk of fracturing the Reed.  The thickness of Baspare that is inserted to the sound-box should not exceed 1mm. Dimensions of Baspare are given below.
