Comparative study method which focuses on musical analysis has started to gain its power again. I tried to give an example for it in this article. This article is not about the social and cultural aspects of Bektashism. It is just a study of compara- tive analysis of their songs which is only a small part of their cultures. My primary aim is to show the basic melodies that can successfully represent most of the melodies. Another aim of mine is to make a comparison between the music of some peoples who have regional and historical ties with Bektashis. I hope that this ar- ticle will help to better understand the secular and mystical music of Thrace Bektashis, and to place this music among other music types.</p>}, number={2}, journal={Journal of Alevism-Bektashism Studies}, author={Sipos, Janos}, year={2010}, month={Jun.}, pages={36–48} }
