Dere Geliyor Dere is a lively Turkish folk dance melody whose title means 'the stream is coming,' conjuring images of rushing mountain water and village celebrations. On the steel tongue drum its energetic, ascending phrases surge forward with a driving momentum that makes the instrument's metallic resonance truly shine. Rapid-fire quarter notes and a fast tempo challenge intermediate players.
How to play Dere Geliyor Dere (Turkish Folk) on a tongue drum
The numbers above are the standard tongue-drum number notation. Each digit is a note of the C Major Pentatonic scale, counting up from the lowest tongue. A dot above a number raises it one octave; a dot below lowers it. The small teal letters show the matching key in the Tongue Drum Online player.
Start slowly, one phrase at a time. Let each note ring out fully before striking the next — the long decay is the whole character of the instrument. This is a intermediate arrangement and a simplified, single-instrument version of Dere Geliyor Dere (Turkish Folk).
