Meşk Recordings

The Dil Beyti database is drawn from the Sufi music meşk sessions held every week at the Foundation for Researching and Preserving Turkish Sufi Music and Folklore. The database currently holds 532 meşk recordings.

In Ottoman social tradition, the Hijri months shaped community life according to the historical events and the spiritual atmosphere they carried, and as in everything else, this influence also showed itself in the ilahis sung in the tekkes (Sufi lodges). For this reason, you can access the meşk recordings in their current order, as well as classified by Hijri month and by recording year.
