  • The documents which show that the mehter musikisi expresses the feeling of Turkish soldiers go back to very early times. Literally, mehter also means "harmonica player", "tent maker" and "kavas". The word "mihter" in the Persian language means also the greatest and majestic. "Mehterhane" is the name that was used for the group of players before the acceptance of the military band by the Ottomans. Mehter as Ottoman military music arose in the era of Osman Gazi and had been played in the wars and in ceremonies customarily organized for various everyday purposes. There isn’t, however, any definite information about this organization until the era of Fatih. With Fatih, while the establishment of the empire was developing, a radical improvement began, as well, in the organization of the mehter.
