Abstract

Martin Stokes, has an important place in the context of fieldworks and theoretical approaches in the field of ethnomusicology, and his fieldworks among Turkey the Middle East cultures has a special importance as well. could assess as the first one on Turkey in the field of study observes cultural changes occurring of depending on the economic conditions. So, he observed cultural changes occurring as a result of migration from migration to big cities or to abroad depending on the economic conditions during Eastern Black Sea fieldwork, we can appreciate as the first fieldwork in Turkey. I aimed to make this study a means of establishing a bond with him both in terms of technique and meaning, as we have done research in the same geography in our doctoral thesis studies. In this article, I have tried to emphasize some of the new theoretical approaches, Stokes has introduced in the field of ethnomusicology, with Ali’s tape, which Stokes mentioned in his article titled “Hazelnut and Lutes, Perceptions of Change in a Black Sea Valley”, is metaphorically based on the information given by the cassettes and cassette player, which are one of the popular transfer tools of cultural identity. Also, I have included Stokes’ fieldwork photos from Black Sea region as the first time in this study.
