Sinan Arat is a ney (reedflute) player, composer and singer. He was born in Erzincan (Turkey) and studied the Ney by Kaşif Demiröz at the Classical Ottoman music conservatory in Izmir. He obtained his masters degree at Codarts Rotterdam lead by the legendary Bansuri master Pandit Hariprasad Chaurasia and Ney master üstad Kudsi Ergüner.

Since his meeting with the mystical ancient flute Ney, he has been reflecting his sound through various approaches that are coming from his regional Anatolian folk music, Ottoman and Indian Classical Music as well as Fusion and experimental forms. He believes that music is an invisible bridge of a breath, where we all are linked and somehow creating a view of life and love in a genuine dimension and it is a bridge through a stone to human, through the hearth to cosmos, through silence to the big bang, through multitude to the oneness.

Besides his music performances he also plays for film & theatre productions. He has been invited several times on TV & Radio programs to perform. He performed with the Ney at Podium Witteman, Vrije Geleuden, Tijd voor Max, The Passion, Wereld Draait Door, NBE Nieuwjaarconcerts NPO, Vrij Geluiden, Omroep Gelderland, just to name a few.
