Some members of an Ottoman Empire Military Band have convened in Istanbuls passenger harbor. The magnificent costumes date back to the Ottoman Empire (16th century); they include high ribbed hats which are flared at the top and long embroidered silk robes. Equipment (from left to right): 1 Turkish flag; 2 bells; 3 boru (trumpet); 4 cevgen - a kind of stick bearing small hidden bells; 5 nakare - a small kettledrum (pressed to his body).
