Ney (NAY)

The Ney is one of the oldest musical instruments still in use today, with a history stretching back over 4,500 years in the Middle East, particularly in regions that now encompass modern-day Turkey, Iran, and Egypt. This end-blown flute is deeply intertwined with Sufi traditions and is considered a symbol of divine love and longing. The Ney's haunting, ethereal sound is produced by blowing across the instrument's top opening, creating a tone that is both deeply emotional and spiritually uplifting.
