Burdur Volkslieder

In Burdur, zeybek types – from the slowest to the fastest, from belly dances to folk dance – attract attention. In Burdur, where songs and plays are intertwined, every traditional song or tune has a folk dance. The most original example of this are the Teke Region folk songs and dances. Most of the Teke traditional music is for dancing, and the most typical dance of the region is the zeybek. In the villages of Burdur, Düğün Havaları (wedding songs), Eşkiya Havaları (bandit songs), Avşar Beyleri, Uygulamalı Havalar (variants) and Teke Havaları are still performed. The number of famous folk songs with stories still circulating today is quite high.
