          Hard case for your pan included! 

          When listening to a RAV Pan F Romanian Hijaz you will find yourself at a busy eastern market, suq, where the jingle of coins, rapid Arabic speech and fast-pace life will be heard. When the evening comes, a beautiful raqs sharqi, a belly dancer, will enchant you with her shining costume and rhythmic moves of her torso and hips. The F Romanian Hijaz pan has that sweet and vivid flavor of baklava, gozinaki and lokum. Unlike our D Hijaz, this scale produces a brisk, energetic sound that will cheer up and set up for dance.

          The instrument has a medium difficulty scale, so will be suitable for experienced and confident handpan players. If you are fond of fast rhythms and percussion, this is a perfect choice. As it has an Arabian tone, it will be great for small instrumental ensembles that explore middle eastern music tradition.



          We accept credit and debit cards (VISA, MasterCard, American Express) and PayPal.

          How to place an order?
          1. Choose a tuning (scale) you like the best and press "add to cart";

          3. In your cart, click "Checkout";
          4. Type in your Shipping Address. Make sure to include your phone number so delivery will be convenient and smooth.

          Worldwide delivery
          We ship around the world. Standard DHL shipping is 11-15 days. If you want to receive the instrument faster, you can choose DHL Express (8-11days). Delivery time depends on the destination country.

          This RAV pan is a brother of our D Hijaz scale. Equally inspired by the music of middle eastern maqams, F Romanian Hijaz follows Egypt, Lebanon and Turkey folk music tradition. Some authors call Arabian music “whisper of the ages” or “painter’s work set off with gold”. Sounds beautiful, doesn’t it? However, It is a more easy-going, quick and energetic pan. Unlike a traditional maqam that doesn’t include a rhythmic component, this scale has a rich variety of rhythmic combinations. It is due to the fact that a Romanian minor scale has been added to the Hijaz one.

          Romanian Minor, or Ukrainian Dorian, or Gypsy Style, is a popular scale in eastern Europe, especially in Jewish synagogues. It was widely used by famous composers like Julian Cochran, George Gershin and Moshe Beregovski. The instrument is a combination of two cultures and styles – mesmerizing middle-eastern scale and frisky sonorous Romanian one. This gives F Romanian Hijaz pan such an exotic, unique and uplifting sound.

          The atmosphere created by F Romanian Hijaz reminds you of an evening spent in an Arabic town, at a local belly dance show. The jiggling beads and crystals on the raqs sharqi dancer’s dress, rhythmic yet graceful moves and shakes of the dancer’s torso and hips, squeaking from the wind lanterns and clapping to the bit public – that is the picture that your mind visualizes when you hear F Romanian Hijaz play. The sound makes you feel alive and realize how wonderful life is.

          This RAV Pan has a configuration of the 4th degree of a harmonic minor scale, which is sometimes named a Dorian 4# mode. The Ding is in F#3. The range of notes is from 3rd to 5th octave. There are seven full tones and six half tones in the note layout which gives a vast variety for their combinations. The membranes are small and the sustain is shorter than in other Arabian hand drums, so the pan produces short linked tones that don’t overflow one into another. Thus, you will instinctively play fast and briskly.

          For whom this pan will work

          The pan has a complex note placement and has a bigger number of them than any instrument we’ve had, so you’d better have an experience with tongue drums or hand pans to play it. 

          The scale is perfect for the musicians who are fans of percussion and fast play and want to create a festive and joyful mood. Whether it is a big ceremonial occasion like wedding and birthday or just a home session, this RAV Vast pan won’t disappoint and carry you away with its energetic and vibrant rhythms.

          The F Romanian Hijaz is perfect for creation of Arabian motives, so it goes nicely with middle-eastern folk instruments like a ney and mizmar (types of flute) or a rubab (a string instrument). It may be challenging but possible to pair it with steel drums and pans that have the same cultural origin – B Onoleo, G Humayun or Arabian nights. However, the instrument usually doesn’t need any musical support and performs great in solo.
