The origins of Turkish Music, were written, especially in the age of Ottoman Empire, as known Otoman Turkish is Arabic and Persian (Farsi). Music education will gain experience in researching and comparing these origins with music education.As a starting point, we researched thoroughly Ottoman Turkish; especially written in the 15th. Century, Arabic and Persian. We aimed to contribute today's work with the theoretical and practical information about Singing education, that we found in the Turkish music books, called “Edvar”. These books include every sort of themes about music. These themes are, principally, formation of voice, voice system, tunes “maqams”, ika cycles, singing, musical instuments and treatment with music.The themes of Singing education in these books are related to our paper. And we will research the works about this subject which were done in the 15th. Century and compare them with todays's Singing education
