Title: THE INFLUENCE OF ISLAMIC CULTURE ON THE ALBANIAN CIVIC SONG AND SPECIALLY THAT OF ELBASAN
Author: Tusha, Kastriot
Abstract: To get to the civic song of the City of Elbasan of the XIX-XX century, we should look at the legacy of the religious music of various Muslim rites, which was sung in most cases A-Capella, in the mosque, or at home, on holidays, or birthdays. How was it and what did this music represent, how was it constructed, what impact did it have on the community? The first religious songs of Islamic culture began to appear around the 15th century, such as Mawlid and Ilahi, which are more or less the same way of expressing musical thought. Mawlid itself means "To be born", the time of birth. It is a literary, musical work, which shows the coming into this world of Muhammad, about the Miraj and His holy life. Initially, in the Albanian territories, they sang the mawlid in Arabic, but over time Albanian authors have created their own Mawlids, such as Hasan Zyko Kamberi, Hafiz Ali Gjoka (Ulqinaku), who have resisted time best. Mawlid was sung by the Hafiz, or others, who had a beautiful voice, at home, or in the mosque, on the 12th or 13th day of the blessed month of Muhammad's birth. Other creators of Mawlids in Albanian are Hafiz Ali Korça, Hafiz Ibrahim Dalliu, H. Zemblaku, Sheh Ahmet Shkodra, A. effendi Gjakova, Sulejman effendi Elbasani and others in Kosovo, Macedonia and Montenegro.
