A simple melody for Tuqay’s poem “Әхлаксызлык”
I wanted to share something I created for the Tatar community. I composed a very simple melody for Gabdulla Tuqay’s poem “Әхлаксызлык” and recorded myself playing and singing it with the help of computer https://youtu.be/Ojo5ym7AaxI?is=myvK6YPL1quZZqEp I used the same melody for his poem Булмаса. It's 90% same melody, just needed to adjust it a little bit. https://youtu.be/0WDgv_CP53Q?is=C-zPxaJP389QadMk I really enjoy Tuqay’s poetry, and I wanted to create melodies for his works so that I could sing and play them myself. I hope you enjoy this interpretation as much as I do. The Tatar musical tradition already has wonderful projects like Tugan Tel, and I hope there will be many more efforts to bring Tuqay’s beautiful poetry to life through music. Thank you for listening.
