Amazing Ney! Nice Nay!

The middle eastern flute is called a nay (rhymes with nIce) in Arabic. In Turkish, it's called a ney (rhymes with amAzing). So I am confused as to what to call it.

Meshari showed me this ney/nay solo. This particular ney player uses Asian (Japanese, Korean, etc.) melodies and includes the beautiful bends and slurs common in middle eastern music. His performance is so strong!
