GENERAL INFORMATIONS:
Creating a sound through the friction of a
streched plank with a second bow has brought
about the Bow Instruments. The origin of the bow-instruments
roots is also rather comple as is in the other
instruments.
The
first examples of the bow-instruments were
formed by binding a small body whose front part
was closed with a streched skin to the stem on
which there strings made of horse-tail hairs.
The
first bow-instruments in Turkish, name "Iklig",
"Oklu" were encountered in the eighth and ninth
centuries especially in Shamanist rites, an
instrument called the "Kil Kopuz" was used.
There are several cymbals produce sound during
movememnt and this creates a mystical atmosphere
by mixing into the sounds produced throygh the
friction between the bow made of horse hairs and
the strings made also of horse hairs.
The
sound of the Cymbals also form a rythmic harmony.
M. Courant states that the first examples of bow-instruments
were introduced to China by the Turkish and
Mogolian tribes in the North.
The
Uygurs have also used various boe-instruments
together with the kopuz-Gicek, Kabak Kemane,
Cagana, Kemence are all bow-instruments similar
to Iklig.
It
is certain that all the developed bow-instruments
in our time have been developed from the
primitive bow-instruments seen in many parts of
the world.
