Ney is an end-blown flute that figures prominently in middle eastern music. In some of these musical traditions, it is the only wind instrument used. The Ney has been played continuously for 4,500–5,000 years, making it one of the oldest musical instruments still in use.
The Persian Ney consists of a hollow cylinder with finger-holes. Sometimes a brass, horn, or plastic mouthpiece is placed at the top to protect the wood from damage, and to provide a sharper and more durable edge to blow at. The Ney consists of a piece of hollow cane or giant reed with five or six finger holes and one thumb hole.
