Özet:

Society is a whole formed by individuals with their biological, cultural, imaginary and intellectual beings. Therefore, the formation of societies, especially healthy societies, is closely related to the physical, emotional, intellectual and spiritual development of individuals. Many components from science to technology, from sports to politics, from literature to art have an impact on this development of individuals. Music is also a branch of art that comes to life at any time and everywhere in daily life, and also has an important effect on the development of individuals and therefore societies as a means of life tool. It is possible to see the unifying and integrating effect of music everywhere, from small communities to national states to multinational cultures and corporations. The fact that music appeals not only to the ear but also to the mind, heart and soul increases the effect of music on individuals and societies. Considering how actively music is used in marketing any product, person or idea, it will be clearly seen how important music is in terms of economy, society and politics. Since every subject that affects people can be associated with space and geography, it is inevitable for the geographer to be interested in music as a research area. While the scope of music geography is handled in the perspective of phenomenological approach in this study, the place and importance of music geography is explained in the context of studies on music geography.
