SEYLI IN LOVE
ϹEЙЛИ ХАЛАН / ВЛЮБЛЁННЫЙ ϹEЙЛИ
Folk instruments ensemble
Turkmen folk melodies
Melodiya, 1985, S30 22275 004
Recorded in 1982 and released in 1985 this is an album about the instrumental aspect of the Turkmen tradition. The musicians whose names are not mentionned were state employees at the Turkmen Radio-Television. Were they traditional musicians or were they the product of the Turkmen School of Music ? I think there are three of them here: one ghijak and two dutars but the sound quality is not great.
This music may sound difficult to follow with long and complex melodies but as for other musical traditions it is worth listening to it several times and then find some pleasure and excitement in it.
