The description of the Suzidilara maqam is first made by Abdulbâkî Nasır Dede in his book Tedkîk ü Tahkîk. Nasır Dede, explained that III. Selim invented Suzidilara maqam. Since Dede did not clearly indicate the scale or scales that made up the Suzidilara maqam in his description, many theorists use different compound scales when describing that maqam. In this study, it is aimed to find out the compatibility between the scales and characteristics of the Suzidilara maqam which are determined by the analysis of 52 pieces composed by different composers, and ten different theorists’ description of this maqam. To compare composers’ usage of scale or scales in their compositions in Suzidilara maqam, and the scale or scales in the descriptions of Suzidilara maqam, forms the basis of this study. Therefore, the differences between the 10 theorists’ descriptions of Suzidilara maqam were examined in this study. Then, instrumental pieces composed in the Suzidilara maqam: 11 peşrev, 1 medhal, 11 saz semaisi and vocal works: 1 mevlevi ayini, 1 ilahi, 2 teşvih, 2 ağır semai, 4 yürük semai, 1 murabba beste, 1 beste 17 şarkı total of 52 works, were analyzed by the modal analysis method. Composers’ usage of the Suzidilara maqam and the scales in their works were determined in 52 works. 10 theorists who made the description of the Suzidilara maqam and 32 composers who composed in Suzidilara maqam were presented in historical order.
