Aziz Şenol Filiz is a distinguished Turkish musician renowned for his mastery of the ney, a traditional Middle Eastern end-blown flute. His deep understanding and interpretation of Sufi music, especially the Mevlevi repertoire, have placed him among the most respected interpreters of the genre. Born into a family with a rich musical heritage, Filiz began his journey into the world of music at an early age, enabling him to develop a strong foundation and a unique style that honors the traditions of the past while embracing contemporary sensibilities.

In his career, Filiz has cultivated an impressive discography that often explores and celebrates Mevlevi music—a classical Sufi tradition closely associated with the poetry of Rumi and the whirling dervishes. His series "Beş Ayin," including "Beş Ayin III (Sababuselik Mevlevi Ayini)," "Beş Ayin IV (Şevk-u Tarab Mevlevi Ayini)," and "Beş Ayin V (Acemaşiran Mevlevi Ayini)," showcases his commitment to this spiritual art form. Additionally, his albums "Yansımalar" and "Bâb-ı Esrar" illustrate his versatility and depth as an artist, capturing the emotional resonance and meditative quality that ney music is celebrated for. Aziz Şenol Filiz continues to mesmerize audiences with his ethereal sound, conjuring an atmosphere of contemplation and mystical transcendence through his performances.
