You can buy the individual songs of this as well as more of my work here: faryafaraji.bandcamp.com/album/the-janissary Music composed and/or arranged by Farya Faraji. With this, I wanted to tell the life of a Janissary soldier through the musical styles representative of a Janissary’s life, from Balkanic music to Anatolian rythms, Alevi songs, Ottoman Classical music and more. Some of the compositions are entirely mine, others are my arrangements of folk music or existing melodic patterns from these regions. Many thanks to Dimitris Athanasopoulos of the One Man’s Noise channel for providing the direction and vocals for the Epirotic text we brought to life here. Female vocals by Sumru Ağıryüyrüyen. The Janissaries were the elite troops of the Ottoman Empire. Conscripted by force through the devşirme child-levy system, they were taken from Christian Balkan families, converted into Islam and made into the most ferocious standing army of Europe for centuries. * Overture A taksim (freeform, non-rythmic improvisation in Greek, Turkish, Arabic etc music) in the makam Hüseyni. (A makam is a melodic mode). The instrument I used is the kopuz, an instrument closely linked to the mysticism of Alevi Islam, which was the root culture of the Janissary Corps. * My Mother’s Song: The song is Chereshko, a Bulgarian folk song. The instrumentation consists of a Balkan tambouras and kaval flutes. The lyrics speak of a cherry tree that can’t bear fruits. A young man walks past the tree and asks it why it doesn’t bear any fruits. The tells him that two young lovers stood beneath it and swore that if they did not marry each other, the tree would dry out. * Devşirme - When They Took Me This piece brings in the Turkish bağlama and the bendhir. The makam (mode) used is a mixture of Bayat, Nawa Athar and Hijazkar, the latter with microtonal modifications. A Balkan kemane is also heard at the end. The usul (rythmic structure in Turkish music) used is Devr-i-Hindi, a 7/4 aksak (asymmetric time signature, defined in Turkish music as the compound addition of multiple symmetric time signatures). * Ανάθεμά σε, βασιλιά - Thrice be Damned, Emperor The story behind this passage is an interesting one. I did some digging during my research and found this text from a lost song. The text dates back to Ottoman times, and expresses the sorrow of people whose young boys were taken into the devşirme system. The song is known to have been from Epirus, and whilst the melody has been lost, I did some guesswork and asked for the assistance of Dimitris from the One Man’s Noise channel. He provided me with examples of traditional Epirotic songs that use the 15 syllable structure of this poem; one of the primary metres of Medieval and post-Medieval Greek poetry, also called decasyllabic verse. We used the melody of the Epirotic song Βασιλικέ μου τρίκλωνε, which uses the συρτό στα τρία dance. The instrumentation uses the mainland Greek lauto and kaval flutes. Greek text: Ανάθεμά σε, βασιλιά, και τρις ανάθεμα σε, με το κακό οπόκαμες, και το κακό που κάνεις. Στέλνεις, δένεις τους γέροντας, τους πρώτους τους παπάδες Να μάσης παιδομάζωμα, να κάμης γενιτσάρους. Κλαιν' οι γοναίοι τα παιδιά, κ' οι αδελφές τ' αδέλφια, Κλαίγω κ' εγώ και καίγομαι και όσο θα ζω θα κλαίγω. Πέρσι πήραν τον γιόκα μου, φέτο τον αδελφό μου.

* To Anatolia I wanted to signal the journey eastwards by leaning into a sound that is distinctly Anatolian. The makam is a mixture of Bayat and Kurdi. The instrumentation consists of a bağlama and Anatolian duduk/mey, (often used by Hollywood composers as the lazy go-to for anything remotely oriental, even Indian or Morrocan, but the instrument is specific to the Caucasus and Anatolia, with Armenian roots). The usul is in a 9/8 aksak, comprised of the addition of three measures of three; very commonly used in the Balkans and Anatolia. Turkish lyrics: Gel gel, canım, gel. English translation: Come, my can*, come. *Can is difficult to translate literally. It is borrowed from a Persian literally meaning “my life,” and is used as a term of endearment in both Persian and Turkish, however in this context it is closely tied to the Janissary culture, rooted in the Alevi-Bektashi practice of Islam. Alevis often call one another “can,” as did the Janissaries. * Istanbul: Queen of Cities This passages reuses my Constantinople leitmotif. I leaned entirely into the Hollywood-esque aesthetic that I refer to as Orientalist, which is itself an imitation of how Middle-Eastern countries began adapting the Western orchestra in the last two centuries. This kind of recognisable sound is simply the usage of a Western orchestra, but with Eastern techniques where every note copiously uses portamento and glissando. I believe this Orientalist aesthetic, which is effectively how Westerners perceive Middle-Eastern music, to thematically fit the point of view of a non Middle-Easterner seeing the gayeway to the East for the very first time. * Welcome to the Corps Another taksim in the Hüseyni makam using the kopuz, once again signalling the strong Alevi nature of the Janissary corps. In this, they were similar to European military-religious organisations like the Templars or Hospitaliers; religious knight-like figures with a strong devotion to a specific form of religion and a “patron saint,” in this case Hacı Bektaş-ı Veli, the Muslim mystic who began Alevism, and whose early followers blessed the nascent Janissary corps. * Tevhid - My New Faith This is an Alevi folk song. Such songs would have routinely been sung by the Janissaries during zikr-the Sufi religious ceremony of singing songs and entering trances in remembrance of God. The instruments are ones commonly used by Alevis today: the bağlama, the kopuz and the Kurdish tanbour.

The lyrics are the very oath that Janissaries took historically, called a gülbang, a sort of prayer or oath. Turkish lyrics: Allah Allah İllallah, Baş üryan, Sine püryan, Kılıç al kan, Bu meydanda nice başlar kesilir, Hiç olmaz soran. Eyvallah! Eyvallah! Kahrımız kılıcımız, düşmana ziyan. Kulluğumuz padişaha ayan, Üçler, yediler, kırklar! Gülbang-ı Muhammmedî, Nur-i Nebî, Kerem-i Ali, Pirimiz Sultanımız Hünkâr, Hacı Bektaş-ı Veli, Demine devranına, Hu diyelim Huuuuuuu! * Mehter Marşı - The Janissary Anthem This is my humble attempt at writing an Ottoman mehter. Mehter is the style of music of the Mehteran, the oldest known military bands in the world, which will directly influence the West in its formation of its own military bands, as seen today in America. The music of the Mehteran is characterised by loud, powerful percussion and the use of the zurna, a reed instrument with a piercing quality. Performances of Mehter marches begin with the announcement of the arrival of the Head Mehter, who salutes his musicians, is saluted back by them, the announces the beginning of the playing with “Ya Allah!” Lyrics in Turkish. Vakt-i sürûru sefâ, Mehterbaşı Hey! Hey!
Merhabâ ey mehterân!
Merhabâ, Mehterbaşı!
Hasduuur!
Haydi! Ya Allah! Dinle, dinle iyi dinle, Kâfir konuşur, Of of! Bize merhamet et, O ne büyük bir kuvvet, O ne büyük bir devlet! Aman! Kâfir, dinle iyi dinle, Osmanın kılıcı geldi, Fetih zamanı geldi, Devlet-i-aliyye geldi! * Savaşlar - The Wars I Fought A military piece using the zurna, bağlama and kopuz, and an Ottoman Classical ensemble of qanun, oud and tembur. The first is representative of the mehter, military aspect of the Janissaries, the second two of their Alevi Bektashi aspect, and the third of their allegiance to the Imperial state. The makam travels between Hüseyni and Bayat. * İstanbul Peşrev - The Peacetime Years This is an arrangement of my Istanbul not Constantinople leitmotif in the form of Ottoman Classical Music’s peşrev, a musical form in Ottoman Classical Music characterised usually by a 4/4 usul, never an aksak one. One of the primary aspects of peşrev is that the usul is always very long, and can go up as much as 200 measures; in other words, the percussional pattern isn’t as repetitive and simple as the one heard in the Janissary Oath part; instead the percussional beats keep progressing in new ways, and the pattern can be minutes long instead of seconds long; it can be thought of as a whole song of its own that is developed continuously, only with percussions instead of pitch. * Topkapı Peşrev - My Rise to the Sublime Porte I wanted to represent the occasional rise of Janissaries to high positions of power by writing a two part Ottoman Classical piece. Ottoman Classical music refers to the complex pieces characterised by usage the ensemble use of oud, qanun, tembur, kemenche and ney, in contrast to folk instruments like the bağlama and kopuz. Technically only the first part of this which is in a symmetrical usul is a peşrev, as the second part, which is my new leitmotif for the House of Osman itself, is in 5/8, an aksak, which by definition does not meet the features of a peşrev. * Zaman - The Passing of the Years The main melody is not mine but instead composed by Turkish qanun players. This style of music is a more contemporary Turkish one, with strong Western influences of counterpoint and riff producing functional harmony. * Var Git Ölüm - The Bullet The poem is by Karacoğlan, a 17th century Anatolian ashik (bard), a major figure of folk poetry, centred around nomadic and village lifestyles as opposed to the Imperial poetry of the Ottoman courts. Lyrics in Turkish: Ölüm ardıma düşüp de yorulma
Var git ölüm bir zaman da yine gel
Akıbet alırsın komazsın beni
Var git ölüm bir zaman da yine gel 
Çıkıp boz kurtlayın ulaşamadım
Yalan dünya sana çıkışamadım
Eşimle dostumla buluşamadım
Var git ölüm bir zaman da yine gel

Karac'oğlan der ki derdim pek beter
Bahçede bülbüller şakıyıp öter
Anayı atayı dün aldın yeter
Var git ölüm bir zaman da yine gel

​@@turkmenist40 they are. And they are supressed. Turkey never was an ethnic "pure" state and never will be. Kemal would roll in his grave if he'd know what your president is doing right now.

Being Janissary was a way of life. Soldiers were thought carpentry,blacksmithing,cooking for the core and all other necessary life skills. They were followers of Bektashi order and not very strict. They were also sent to allied countries to teach them about modern warfare. A unit could build a bridge or blow up a bridge. They had the knowledge to shape the world around them. They were disciplined elite shock troops who where trusted with vital missions. Most janissaries rose to high ranks such as pashas, viziers or grand viziers. They got more and more powerful within time and rioted which eventually led to disbandment.

This reminded of something I had forgotten until now. When I was a young kid, I read this short story about a boy who was raised as a girl so that he would not be taken for a janissary. Then at a certain age, like 12, maybe, his dad cut his braids and said that from now he's a boy and also he's married to the girl he used to play with. Again, to avoid the conscript. It made a huge impression on me because as a girl he was called by a feminised version of his name, which is also my name. Also, the story is told by the boy himself as an old man as he is knitting and I just loved the idea of a grandpa that knits. I had forgotten all that. I think the story is "the only journey of his life" by Georgios Viziinos? Wow. Thanks for bringing back all this stuff.

The Ottoman/Turkish layer of history there is just as fascinating as the Byzantine past. Ive been in awe of that city since besieging it in Age of Empire II more than twenty years ago, shed a tear or two when I finally got to visit it. It is the most enchanting place on Earth. Now your music is inextricably linked to it in my mind.

Janissaries were really "Janissaries" until the period of Murat III. After Murat III ruined the Janissary corps, the Janissaries constantly opposed the innovations and rebelled. If Mahmut II had not abolished the Janissary corps, the Ottoman Empire could have collapsed earlier.

He is free from matter. God is above both time and space and lives independently of them. God, who created them, has to exist outside of them. If he was limited by time or space, he could not be God. Just like one that might create an electronic device, he has to live outside of it. It is impossible for a God who is timeless and unconstrained by space to come into existence when He Himself created time and space. The laws of creation and life do not apply to God. therefore, nothing of his creation applies to Allah and this concept of God is highly feared by atheists who cannot have any argument against quite literally. and this concept of God dismiss christianity as their God got breastfed and destroys Judaism as the rabbis in Judaism won an argument against God in their talmud book. only Islam has this concept of God that non can bring any argument against.

Beautiful piece of work! This masterpiece is one of a kind because it tells the story of a Janissary through a musical perspective. It is to be noted that many historical sources from the 14th and 15th centuries note that many Balkan families were also willing to give away their children to the Ottomans as they knew that life as Janissaries meant more opportunities and a better life than in the Balkans. Many famous Ottoman grand viziers were ethnic Greeks, Albanians, Serbs, etc. Please keep up the amazing content ❤

This is not true, most parents didn't give away their children to blood tax willingly, there were some that did that is true but it is a myth used to justify the practice as beneficial. It is in the end a mass conscription practice from youth and wasn't seen favorable by the parents, even with the rules in place like it couldn't be the only son of the family, and that only 1 boy taken from every so many families in a village. No need to try to justify practices of past states with modern morality.

Yes some families might be willing to give their children to the state but i think it is impossible to make a generalisation about a topic like this because in my opinion, we really don't have enough written resources from eyes of jannisarries. To be honest even if i had a 5 or 7 sons i wouldnt want give any of them but i live by modern morals. However, we can't deny the fact that jannisary corps was one the strongest , might be the strongest interest group at Ottoman Empire from its foundation to 1826 and being a jannisary was a hell of privilage in a society based on a godlike ruler and remaning are its slaves/servants regardless of their ethnicity and religion. Thats why during 16th century ethnic Turks started to get in Jannisary corps. By 17th century they become hereditary class located at heart of the Empire and held a immense poliitcal power and leverage against imperial council.

Thanks, Farya, it was my first symphony by you, and that was really great experience! I guess it's a perfect, ready-to-use film or TV series soundtrack.

Absolutely amazing. Just the kind of music I've been looking for several times for specific moods.

What makes the Janissarys powerful on the battlefield is they bring there pain with them. When the enemy is on the feild of battle and when the facts of who you are killing strikes you your reason to fight dies no matter what they have done no matter the mass murder of your commrads still they lived a life to live and these peoples all there life is is this. Your will to draw sword into them dies as you die soon after.

Dearest Farya, no matter my personal feelings on this subject, this Symphony is indeed masterful. It captures history as it was and is mesmerizing to all of us listening to it. Even if difficult, emotions are evoked as it is heart wrenching, it's all there. The power of music (μουσικη = musike = the art of the Muses), is yours.

Especially the “tevhid” part is super catchy and beautiful. Big thanks from Turkey. I love your music so so much.

I'm familiar with the history of the Ottoman Empire, the history of the Janissaries, especially in the context of the invasions to and ultimately the occupation of large parts of Hungary.

I usually don't comment but I must say Farya, you've really outdid yourself with this symphony! I cannot stop listening to this as I find myself writing to it and crafting stories. Awesome work man, can't wait to see what you have next!

It isn't as tragic as you are making it out to be as most didn't see cruelty when their children where taken but rather opportunity as boys who were to become janissaries came from poor slave families so they had a better chance to get a High position in the sultans court or become renowned soldiers if they were taken to be trained . And coming to your other part in which we pretty much villainized the Ottoman Sultans as lustful emperors who did nothing but hang around in the harem is partially incorrect as the first half of the Ottoman sultans actively participated in campaigns and they were the ones to create the devshirme system .

The actual tradegy is, that many of those children were made to fight against their own people after being turkified and islamisized. There are many stories about encounters of parents with their now hostile children after decades.

For me, Farya is on par with Hans Zimmer, Vangelis and Maurice Jarre in epicness and he even exceeds them when taken into account the historicity of his music and his genius in creating interesting thematic crossovers.

Why Farya has only 184K subs and not a 100 times more is a question not even Aristotle himself would be able to find answer to.

Talent like this only comes by every so often, this guy's gotta be destined for monumental levels of fame.

It's an emotional thing, I can say that as a Bulgarian. I'm sure Greek and Serbian listeners will agree to that as well. The devshirme was a dreaded practice. Still, sometimes, some families felt it as a chance of social rising. Complicated, as everything in the Balkans. Great music, as always! Even as a modern man, I've had my fair share of delicate, difficult relationship with Istanbul. Used to live there for some time, loved the City. But then, there followed a hard breakup, so it has remained a bittersweet memory to me. I have a love-hate relationship with the Queen of Cities. Is there any other way of knowing Constantinople at all? Actually, I'm writing a book about it.
