| | Ottoman military band - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia |
| | The different varieties of bands are classed according to the number of instruments and musicians employed: either six-layered (altı katlı), seven-layered (yedi katlı), or nine-layered (dokuz katlı). | | | In modern Turkish, the band as a whole is often termed mehter takımı ("group of mehters"). | | | Though they are often known by the Persian-derived word mehter (مهتر) in the West, that word, properly speaking, refers only to a single musician in the band. |

| | As a trombonist in the band, Julius Watson reminisced, "We played every Sousa march there ever was." But these marches sounded radically different than originally intended: the music was affected by all the elements shown on the main music page. | | | Marches were a central influence in the creation of the Jenkins' Band sound because marches were some of the only notated music available for the bands to play. | | | With the aid of African musical elements and the syncopation of ragtime music, the marches became looser and more "raggedy" when played by the Jenkins' Orphanage Bands. |
