Information about musical instruments
TÜMATA, guided by the belief that Turkish music exhibits continuity and integrity in terms of history and geography, strives to thoroughly study and preserve the music of every region where Turks reside. More than 300 authentic Turkish musical instruments have been collected for this purpose, and a museum has been established.
