The mizmar, also known as zurna or zorna, is a double-reed wind instrument from the oboe family, widely used across the Middle East, North Africa, the Balkans, and the Caucasus.
Known for its powerful, piercing sound, the mizmar is traditionally played outdoors, often accompanied by a drum during celebrations and popular festivities.
Its performance relies on advanced breath control, including circular breathing, allowing for continuous and expressive playing.
