Analysis of sentence structures in Uzzâl oud taksim of Cinuçen Tanrikorur

Abstract

The most important building block of the plot in taksim is taksim sentences. The sentence structures that gather the musical expression power of the performer are examined and evaluated within the formal elements of a form. Cinuçen Tanrıkorur's Uzzâl taksim was evaluated as a composition, and sentence structures within the sections were revealed and analyzed. The research was based on the document analysis method. In the determination and analysis of sentence structures in the Uzzâl taksim from a theoretical perspective, Akdoğu's (1996) "Form Detection" method was used. Accordingly, Uzzâl taksim was analyzed within the framework of 5 criteria determined as the motifs, clauses and sentence structures used, frequently used meter, motif and sentence structures, length and shortness of sentence structures, melodic connection and evaluations between sentence structures, and factors that constitute the aesthetic beauty and artistic value in taksim. In the research, it was concluded that Uzzâl taksim is divided into introduction-development-conclusion sections, each section contains unique sentence structures within itself, transitions between sections are clearly shown in taksim, rhythms and motifs that emphasize the musical identity of the performer are frequently used, question-answer motifs and sentence structures are present throughout the taksim and based on all these, Cinuçen Tanrıkorur took into consideration the elements of aesthetic beauty and artistic value in Uzzâl taksim.
