Abstract

It can be said that Turkish Music is a very rich music genre with a variety of methods, modes, styles, instruments, performances, genres and culture. As a result of this diversity, Turkish music is called by two different names, Turkish Folk Music (THM) and Turkish Art Music (TSM), despite having similar concepts. Today, in amateur or professional Turkish music education, the fact that the terms and concepts of THM and TSM are the same but named in different ways sometimes causes concept confusion. It can be said that this confusion is one of the main problems of Turkish music conservatories, music education departments and amateur music education institutions (associations, public education, private music courses, etc.). Furthermore, this problem may be considered as an obstacle to Turkish music having standardized information that is acceptable to everyone like Western music. The aim of the research is to apply new methods that unify and facilitate the transfer of Turkish music to future generations through education. The research is important in terms of standardizing Turkish music education and thus combining both music genres. The sample of the study consists of Giresun Folk Songs in the TRT repertoire, where the variety of methods is seen more than other provinces. "Descriptive" method was used in the research. The 64 folk songs in the TRT repertoire were compiled in 10 different methods. In line with the descriptive method, the "Survey" model was utilized. In the research, the data obtained with these methods were analyzed and interpreted. Within the scope of the research, comparisons of Turkish Music Usuls under the titles of THM and TSM were made, and as a result of this comparison, it is seen that these two genres are similar to each other and can be taught together with common concepts.
