Ottoman music
The classical music from the Ottoman Empire uses a completely different tonal system than western music. The so-called makams can be compared to scales, but contain many more different tones. Whereas in European classical music composition is central, in Ottoman music the emphasis is on improvisation. Instruments are used, such as the ney (a kind of flute), kemence (a string instrument) and the oud (a stringed instrument).
