Music in Thedish speaking cultures differed strongly depending on region; Italian Thedish music was closer to European musical styles whereas North African Thedish music had more in common with Middle Eastern musical styles. Both styles are common among Thedes today.

Musical terms

Thedish musicians prefer to translate or calque musical terms.

Italian Thedish music

slap = piano (soft)

stark = forte (loud)

fanþiend = andante (walking)

pik = allegro, vivace (lively)

úthużengfól = expressive

slýþsam = adagio (slow)

snióen yncz = not rushed

þí spriakstamnie = Sprechstimme

þí simbskapie = chorus

North African Thedish music

żard = maqam

Maqam names used in Thedish music aren't translated: Rást, Baját, Ażem, Kurd, Syká, Sabe, Hiżáz, Nahavend

sometimes they use dur and mól instead of Ażem and Nahavend

Common musical forms

furgang = bashraf; prelude

fiól = dulab; rondo

útþank = taqsim; impromptu

lióþ = song

Styles

Thedish opera

Very similar to Italian opera and often written in "Theditalian", a form of Italian with Germanic syntax

Hybrid musical forms

Contemporary Thedish music incorporates both Arab and European influences; for instance symphonies are written in maqams

    • Six Cello Suites in G Rast, D Saba, C Hijaz, Eb Ajam, C Nahawand, and D Bayat
