About the Persian Ney:

The holes allow for a wide melodic range, enabling players to perform intricate Persian melodies and improvisations.

The Ney’s head (Sari) is shaped for easy placement between the teeth and lips.

The body is crafted with precision, each segment affecting the tone and pitch.

Playing Techniques:

To produce sound, place the Ney between your front teeth, resting on your lower lip. Direct your airflow with a relaxed embouchure, covering about half of the mouthpiece, and use diaphragmatic breathing for a steady, clear tone.

Practice Tips:

  • Warm-up with long tones to develop breath control.
  • Practice scales to improve finger placement and pitch accuracy.
  • Listen and imitate Ney masters such as Hassan Kassaei, Hassan Nahid, and Mohammad Mousavi to refine your tone and phrasing.
