Abstract :The repertory of Anatolian folk music has not yet been subjected to extensive studies in terms of various makam theories. The field of the history of makam theory, however, shows a remarkable diversity in terms of approaches and methods used by different theoretical models. In this article, by utilizing the approach of “Theoretical Models” developed by Öztürk insert ignore into journalissuearticles values(2014b);, the various “modes of melodic motion” seen in the repertory of Anatolian folk music are compared with the descriptions in two historical models, namely “Esoteric Symbolism-based Model” insert ignore into journalissuearticles values(ESM); and “Compositional Direction-based Model” insert ignore into journalissuearticles values(CDM);. In both of the “melodyoriented” historical models chosen for comparisons here, the description of the typical melodies are made by specifying the basic reference points of the motion [e.g. the beginning point insert ignore into journalissuearticles values(“âgâz”);, the orientation style insert ignore into journalissuearticles values(“seyir”);, the ending point insert ignore into journalissuearticles values(“karar”);]. It is seen that the models use the traditional note names as a method to denote all these reference points. As a result of the comparisons, it has been found that the folk music examples are in full compliance with the descriptions of both historical models. Based on this study, it has been proven that the repertory of Anatolian folk music has a lot of potential to be a very productive area for new researches related to the concept of makam in the historical and theoretical contexts.
