Sufi musician and virtuoso, Omar Faruk Tekbilek is one of the most sought-after musicians whose work transcends political boundaries while maintaining traditional sensibilities in a way few artists can manage. He is a virtuoso on several instruments: nay (bamboo flute), zurna (double-reed oboe like instrument), baglama (long-necked lute) and percussion, as well as as more. Omar Faruk brilliantly interprets the Sufi, folk, and contemporary music of the Middle East. This award-winning spiritual artist has released many critically acclaimed aums, collaborates with master musicians from all over the world, and tours internationally.
