Traditional Music and Ney

Our Ney and Sufi music lessons introduce students to repertoire, technique and the spiritual depth of Ottoman-Turkish musical heritage.

Ney traditions

The ney, a reed flute with a history spanning over a millennium, occupies a central role in Mevlevi ceremonies and classical Ottoman music. Lessons cover breathing, fingering, makam theory and improvisation.

Course goals

Participants learn foundational melodies, ensemble work and the historical context of Sufi soundscapes—connecting musical practice with cultural understanding.
