Scientific Booklet for the CD of the Ensemble Marâghî, "Sounds from the Seray. The Young Bobowski at the Ottoman Court in 17th Century, Turin, Felmay, 2021, fy 8278. This recording presents a selection from a manuscript that Bobowski (1610-1675), toward the end of his life, dispatched with an embassy from Constantinople to Paris, nowadays conserved at the Paris Bibliothèque Nationale (F BnF Turc 292). The manuscript is mostly made of musical compositions that the young Bobowski learned and transcribed in Western notation, as a memory aid, when he was serving as a music pageboy (içoğlan) at the Ottoman court, the Seray, in the second half of 17th century.
