Abstract
Considered as one of Turkish new generation composers, Erdal Tugcular is today’s one of the strongest representatives of the folklorism in our Polyphonic Contemporary Turkish Music based on the Turkish Five. Musical pieces of Tugcular which are frequently heard in various national and international concert programs are of value and significance with their educational function at various levels of music education. This study harmonically analyses the pieces composed for Ensembles and Singing by Erdal Tugcular who has produced compositions in various styles and forms. For this purpose, “Osmanim” folk song composed for Singing with piano accompaniment and the polyphonic “Road tunes” piece composed for Ensemble were selected as samples among the compositions of Tugcular for Ensemble and Singing. The musical works selected are studied in terms of harmonic patterns and rules used in polyphonic singing. It is believed that the results of the study will contribute in the vocalization-rendition quality of the pieces analyzed and the realization of their educational functions. Keywords: Erdal Tugcular, ensemble pieces, singing pieces, harmonic analysis.
