It is important to learn Turkish folk music works by listening to local artists in order to learn the attitude and style of the region. Local artists reflect the cultural elements of the society and geography in which they live; traditions, customs, customs, feelings and thoughts of the people through music. Considering the presence of local artists in the regions, it is obvious that there may be more than one performance style and variant of the works. A source person can perform the same work differently at different times. In the sheet music of the piece “Hezin Hezin Gir Kapıdan” from the Afyonkarahisar region, which belongs to the Turkish Radio and Television Corporation (TRT) repertory, it is seen that the source person is Abdullah Uluçelik. In another recording taken in an Meşk environment, it was determined that Uluçelik performed the piece differently than the note belonging to the TRT repertoire, and this was determined as the problem situation of the study. Likewise, it has been determined that the performance of local artist Ömer Yarşi, who is a student of Abdullah Uluçelik, in the album recording is different both according to the notation belonging to the TRT repertoire and according to the performance of his teacher Abdullah Uluçelik in the album recording. From this point of view, Uluçelik and Yarşi's recordings were used and various performance examples and variants of the work were recorded by the field research method carried out by us in the region to determine new ones. As a result of the field research, a total of five different performance examples, including the recordings taken from Fikret Güzeldemir and Nevzat Topuzlu (Altındağ), were notated by us and compared in order to reveal the differences in melody and lyrics. In this comparison, the notation in the TRT repertoire was used as a reference. Each performance was analyzed by comparing with the reference note. This study is limited to the performance examples of the piece in Afyonkarahisar center, Çay and Bolvadin districts.
