These are from a Masjid in Ankara. I hate Ankara because i feel alone there and i must admit that theres no spiritual atmosphere. The biggest Masjid in TURKEY is in Ankara called Kocatepe Camii. I went there with my friends for praying tarawih last ramadan and i think its really cool but i have no pictures of there. These pictures are from another Masjid that i am surprised to come across actually. ( I dont remember its name)

[muzur 95]

Salams, other interesting pictures.

These are traditional Ottoman Military Band.

 

With Osman Gazi in 1299 began the mehteran to play for ages in wars, shows and celebrations saying: "Blood is his hand, blood is his sword, bare is his breast, full of trance his heart. Passing with joy on the road to Allah"

 

In 1826 they were abolished, in 1911 they formed again a team, in 1914 they organized and took the name Mehterhane-i Hakani (Royal Mehter Band).

 

They witnessed World War I and the War of Independence.

 

Beethoven and many western musicians composed music inspired by them. And the Mehteran, also called Askeri Mizika Teshkilati (Military Music Organization) played for ages and continues to do so with enthusiasm.

 

They are not valid anymore but their music contunies. With traditional clothes and music they go to some celebrations. I once listened and watched them live and believe me, that was the most amazing music i ever heard.
