The fact that they live in mutual interaction by adopting the local culture of the regions they live in creates their own spheres of existence, while at the same time ensuring the realization of cultural transfer. In the realization of the transfer; Although the effect of the abdal society's own internal dynamism is seen, there are also carriers who do not have abdal identity. In this context, Ekrem Çelebi, who has an important place in Central Anatolian traditional music, is one of the important people who direct the local music with his unique performance style. Ekrem Çelebi, who does not have the identity of Abdal but has made important contributions to the transfer of a deep-rooted culture by growing up in the same culture, also reveals his own attitude and style with the techniques he added to the traditional baglama performance. Çelebi's unique performance style and the works he produced in the traditional context are the most important aspects that make him valuable. Therefore, in this study, it is aimed to introduce Ekrem Çelebi by giving information about his life and to determine his performance style by analyzing the elements that determine his performance style, the baglama he used, the tuning system, ornamentation and plectrum techniques. The method of the study was carried out with the statistical methods used in data collection, analysis and analysis. While making these evaluations, some techniques used in Central Anatolian traditional music, "Performance Technique in the Cover (chest) Area", "Broken Chord" and "Reverse Plectrum" were suggested as a new nomenclature.

Marriage customs in Izmir are among the traditions that continue to be practiced in their most vibrant form today. Marriage customs include various practices performed before, during and after the wedding ceremony. The dowry prepared by the girls to be married with the support of their family and close circle is considered important and continues to be kept alive as a continuation of a deep-rooted tradition. This article contains information based on literature review data about wedding traditions and dowry customs in Turkish culture, and examines the " şemsiye düzme" custom, which is a gift-giving and dowry custom specific to Izmir Tire district. The "şemsiye düzme" tradition, which we identified through observation, camera detection and face-to-face interviews with five source people during the field research we conducted in the Tire district of Izmir province on 10.12.2020 and 19.12.2022, is a gift-giving and dowry practice specific to the Tire district. No other example of the practice was found in our field studies that we have carried out intermittently since 2011 in the region located on the Western Anatolian coastline, including Izmir province. The "şemsiye düzme" tradition, which does not exist in the surrounding provinces of Izmir or even in other districts of Izmir, is a folkloric element that we observe in the Tire district and is on the verge of extinction today. This study not only provides information about the "şemsiye düzme" tradition through today's practices, but also is a study in which the cultural traces of the tradition, which we think bears traces of old Turkish belief and social life, are questioned and interpreted.

On the one hand, western measurement patterns and on the other hand, mathematics of usul emerged as preferred and discussed methods during the creation periods of the repertoire.  Studies conducted in later periods have shown that the concepts of usul system and measurement dont have the same meaning and are representatives of different layers in music. In this regard, it is very important to choose the right methods to be used when determining the metric formations of melody, movement and accompaniment rhythms of Turkish Folk Dances performed with the melodies of the verbal and non-verbal folk music repertoire. The classifications made so far have gone no further than scaling the melodic structures of the dances with a focus on the procedural system. This situation has revealed the existence of a major deficiency in the field. What needs to be done is to evaluate movement and accompaniment rhythms separately, as well as melodic measurements. According to the results of all three elements, classifications should be made in line with the measurement structures obtained. This study covers a part of the big picture, in which the metric structures of all elements of the dances are evaluated together, in parallel with the recent applications on the determination of metric structures, and the metric table that emerges in this direction is presented. While triplets or triplet structures occupy an important area of ​​the Turkish Folk Dances game repertoire, it is important to evaluate and determine the meter structures of the games performed with these structures as a whole, in terms of both melodic, movement and rhythmic aspects.

With modernization, traditional processes are changing, but this change varies from society to society. The focus of this study is the necessity of protecting traditional values ​​and transferring them to the future and preserving cultural heritage. The phenomenon of establishing a family in Turkish society is built with the cultural dynamics of different regions, and the ritualization of being a family has an important place in folk culture. However, the fact that wedding traditions are at risk of disappearing today has increased the importance of this study. Being a part of the process of transferring tradition to the future is the main purpose of this study. The research created a conceptual framework with oral transmission sources and literature review describing the wedding traditions and culture of Düvertepe village. Balıkesir province, Sındırgı district, and Düvertepe Village were determined as the research area and boundaries were drawn based on the data obtained. In Düvertepe village, four-day wedding traditions were examined using oral and written sources and the cultural texture of Yoruk weddings was tried to be understood. In this comprehensive study, individual interviews were conducted with local resource persons and written sources were scanned to trace the repetition practices of the Yörük people of Düvertepe village in their marriage ceremonies and their efforts to carry this ritual to the future.
