Two Taksim on Egyptian Ney

First half is in Maqam Bayati (until I forgot first register fingering at the very end of that section) and second half is in Maqam Hijaz. The improvisational, arhythmic style called taksim is by far my favorite way to play . . . no demands of tempo or memorizing songs, just meditating to the sound of your own playing. This is on my favorite ney, an Arabic Dokah from neyfactory.com.

I agree, the drone works real well...I'm scarfing that idea for my own practicing. Just got a dokah from the ney factory. I love it but I still play my home made pvc ones in public. ( kind of like the difference between a mule and a race horse, The pvc ones are reliable... but a bit 2 dimentional. The reed ney sounds much better but its a whole lot easier to fall off of!)

Very nice to hear you. A great Idea to have the drone background. It really adds to the whole. I will do this as I learn the ney.
