Overview

Ney Tanbur - Yahdet Sirrinin Sadasi by Murat Salim Tokac is a 2-CD collection capturing the soulful depth of traditional Turkish classical music, performed on the ney (reed flute) and tanbur (long-necked lute). This compilation immerses listeners in a meditative journey through Ottoman-era compositions and mystical poetry, weaving together taksims (improvised solo pieces) and saz semais (instrumental compositions) that are significant in Turkey’s musical heritage. Each piece is meticulously performed, evoking the rich spiritual resonance of the ney and tanbur.
