Flutes Orientales Sacrées des Derviches Tourneurs - LP published in 1971 in France


Here a LP of music of the Whirling Dervishes which was wide spread in the 1970s and which sticks out by the participation of two outstanding musicians: the Ney player Hayri Tümer and the singer Münir Nurettin Selçuk (1900-1981). 
On Münir Nurettin Selçuk see: 
On Hayri Tümer see our post of a LP here.
For me Hayri Tümer is the greatest Ney player I ever heard. His music has something like an extra dimension. It is like blazing flames. Unfortunately he is today forgotten.
