Abstract

It can be observed that the loss of interest in traditional music culture compared to popular music culture and the simple creation and use of music videos on social media has caused the interest of the society to diverge from the traditional culture. The facts that this music has been protected for generations in Görele, which is located in the Eastern Black Sea region, and is a traditional music culture, increase the importance of the research. The aim of this study is to determine the transfer of the kemençe culture from the family, the rituals of the kemençe performance and the training methods. As a method, semi-structured questions were asked to 4 kemençe performers based on the Case Study (Case Study) and the findings were included in the interpretation of the answers. In the study, it was seen that the support of the family and social environment was great in acquiring the kemençe culture, but a written source as a method is needed for the kemençe performance education to continue for generations. It was concluded that the performers participating in the study followed similar schools, used the same style of repertoire and gained economic gain from their performance.

Summary

Introduction

It can be said that the increasing functionality of communication tools (mobile phone, internet, etc.) in recent years has created a number of changes in the interests of individuals Provided this change in interest is evaluated as modernization and development, it can be thought that the society will gradually move away from traditional cultural elements and even become alienated from these elements in time. Effective interventions to the music of societies that are desired to lose their cultural values may result in the emergence of cultural changes in the desired direction For this reason, societies that aim to preserve their cultural values and deliver them to future generations should first preserve and transfer the music culture, which is almost a reflection of social values, to future generations” (İmik, 2012: 48) Today, it can be thought that Görele is the only coastal district that has managed to resist this change in the Eastern Black Sea region. Görele can be regarded as one of the most concrete indicators of resistance to this change with the fact that it has the only kemençe house with all kinds of kemençe used in the region and the International Kemençe and Horan festival held every year
