Özet:

Due to fact that Turks have been in Balkans for hundreds of years, Turkish and Macedonian cultures are very similar. There are a lot of Turkish words in Macedonian and cultural influence can be felt in all aspects of life. This situation is also valid for music. Music culture takes place in weddings very effectively. So analysing the wedding traditions is of importance to determine the closeness of the two cultures. Speaking of drum and shawm which have developed hundreds of years in cultural history, this importance increases. In this research which is based on literature review and fieldwork, it has been aimed to compare Turkish and Macedonian drum and shawn in terms of their features and where they are being played throughout the history.
