Review

The Sufi brotherhoods -- in Turkey especially -- acted to preserve classical forms during the period of Westernization (lines between Sufi and classicla music are as blurred as with their European equivalents). The first recording here consists of sacred Sufi poems and takassim for the ney flute. There are good notes in all cases. ~ John Storm Roberts, Original Music, All Music Guide
