Baglama - Saz

A Melodic Journey through Turkish Music: Baglama (Saz)

Enchanting listeners with its distinctive sound and captivating melodies, the Baglama, also known as Saz, holds a cherished place in Turkish music. This traditional stringed instrument embodies the rich cultural heritage of Turkey and has been an integral part of its music for centuries.

The Baglama (Saz) category encompasses a diverse family of stringed instruments in Turkish music, each offering unique tonal qualities and playing characteristics.

The Cura, the smallest member of the family, is known for its compact size and high-pitched, vibrant sound. On the other hand, the Çöğür, a short-necked Baglama, boasts a warm and resonant tone.

For those seeking a smaller size without compromising on rich tonal qualities, the recently developed Kısa Saplı Baglama is an excellent choice. Meanwhile, the Uzun Sap Baglama, with its long neck and deep, resonant sound, stands as the most widely recognized and used type.

The Tambura, with its bright and crisp sound, is ideal for accompanying vocals, while the Divan Sazı, a larger-sized Baglama, finds its place in Turkish classical music. The Meydan Sazı, the largest among them all, is capable of producing powerful and deep sounds.

The Baglama family provides a wide range of instruments, inviting musicians on a melodic journey through the rich traditions of Turkish music.
