«İstanbul Şarkıları: Şehrin Müzikli Tarihinde Kazı Çalışmaları» is the musical essay by Gökhan Akçura, published by Oğlak Yayıncılık in paperback.
It traces Istanbul's musical life from early 20th-century beer halls to jazz on the Bosphorus. Through wars and regime changes, the city kept its festive atmosphere: female singers, gardens, music boats, operettas and revues. Turkish and foreign artists appear, from tango and rock and roll to Romani music.
312 pages, in Turkish; first edition 2019, with bibliographic references.
A work of interest to readers of cultural history and popular music, especially for understanding urban life and leisure in Istanbul.
