Beschreibung
'Tanbur Long-Necked Lutes Along the Silk Road and Beyond' explores the origin, history, construction, and playing techniques of tanburs, a musical instrument widely used over vast territories and over many centuries. The diffusion of the tanbur into the musical cultures along the Silk Road resulted in a variety of tanburs with two or more, occasionally doubled or tripled courses, a varying number and variously tuned frets, each having its own characteristic sound, playing technique, and repertory. Since the last century, tanburs spread beyond the Silk Road while new versions continue to appear due to changing musical and tonal demands made on them. Similar or identical instruments are also known by other names, such as saz or baglama, dotar or dutar, setar, dombra, and dambura.

Über den Autor
Hans de Zeeuw began to take baglama lessons and became interested in its long and fascinating history while working at the Free University in Amsterdam and studying at the Open University. This led him to decide to break off his studies and focus, for many years, on research into the Turkish saz or baglama under the supervision of Dr Leo Plenckers of the Department of Musicology of the University of Amsterdam and Dr Okan Murat Ozturk of the Devlet Konservatuvari of the Baskent Universitesi in Ankara. His publications include Tanbur Long-Necked Lutes along the Silk Road and beyond (2019, Archaeopress) and The Turkish Long-Necked Lute Saz or Bag?lama (2020, Archaeopress), both supervised by Dr Saskia Willaert of the Musical Instrument Museum (MIM) in Brussels.
