          Description

          A cheerful sound, an uplifting timbre, and super easy to learn! That’s what makes it the odds-on favourite among both beginners and professional musicians.

          The drum produces a soft and cheerful sound with a slight melancholiac feeling. Just like memories about the good old times, the sound of this drum evokes a bittersweet feeling of happiness.

          The sound of this drum can remind you of the B Celtic Minor. However, it has its own unique voice. The central bass tongue is tuned in D. The 8 notes are tuned in 3rd and 4th octave.

          The drum belongs to Western culture. The D Major scale was commonly used in European classical music and, being a base for violin music, became popular in the Baroque period.

          It works perfectly with pretty much any other RAV Vast drum and creates the perfect symphony with the B Celtic. If you are going to jam with other instruments, guitars will be the best addition to the D Major.




          Are you searching for a “happy-sounding” spacedrum available for sale? Then you’ve found the right one! The D Major is a very positive scale that creates a pop-song feel. The D Major looks pretty much the same as the B Celtic with a different middle and first note. Still, the D major has its own unique and more lively and joyful voice. This scale if perfect for creating fast melodies and composing quick-timbre songs.
          Another great thing about the D Major is that you can actually choose between two different moods.
          You can create a more melancholic, soothing and nostalgic feel using the bottom note as a root chord, or you can create truly grand, uplifting melodies using the Ding as a key note.
          So, play this tune and play it loud! The special steel produces a loud sound and a super long sustain. All the notes sound in harmony when they are played together. Hence, you can vary your play by multiple dyads using the Ding, side note and bottom note, and by triads using the adjacent steel tongues.

          For whom this scale will work

          For a beginner

          The D Major is one of the most popular scales for beginners who are searching for a good pan drum at an affordable price. This scale is easy to learn, works perfectly for intuitive playing, and provides many options for improvisation (while saving some money as well). At the point when you haven’t learnt all the patterns yet (or are making your very first steps in playing a handpan), you can still get a really good melody. The D Major scale is also a great option to start learning to play the tongue drum as the voice of this drum is not too moody or ethnic.

          For a pro

          A good option of a tongue drum for a professional musician who is searching for a full-sound instrument. This scale is quite versatile and as such leaves room for your music experiments and compositions, especially if you do a lot of collaboration with other musicians. As the D Major is a popular scale used in many music compositions, you’ll easily jump into any music band and be able to uphold the repertoire. It works perfectly with many musical instruments but makes the greatest pair with guitars.

          Take a look at the numerous D Major reviews and online video tutorials to find out all the capabilities of this scale.

          Interesting facts about D Major music

          What if we say that you’ve already heard a lot of music compositions composed in D Major? The D Major is thought to be a “pop” tonality. Queen’s “The Show Must Go On”, The Eagles’ “Hotel California”, and U2’s “With or Without You” were all created using the D Major.
          But not only pop composers use this tonality when creating songs.
          The D Major is famous for being a monopolist tonality for violins as its D string produces a brilliant sound while resonating with its open strings. This also works for orchestral strings, so there’s no question as to why great composers such as Mozart, Paganini, Tchaikovsky and Beethoven created D Major violin concerts.
          The D Major is also known as “the key of glory” as it was chosen by composers in the Baroque period as a key for trumpet concertos. And even after, in the Romantic period, it was used as the final credits of many symphonies (of Beethoven, Rachmaninoff, Franck and others).

          I’m in LOVE with this drum!

          I’ve been dreaming to learn to play the handpan drum for a while but I was really afraid to start as I had pretty no musical background. The D Major RAV Vast became a game-changer for me. It’s a unique instrument - a tongue drum with a blissful sound. I messaged the RAV team and they advised me to buy the D Major as this scale is just perfect for newbies and can be played by literally anyone. I started at a snail’s path tapping randomly different tongues and I already get some nice melodies! I am well motivated to keep on learning to play real songs!

          I received my D Major RAV Vast this week and I've had a blast playing with it. I play guitar and I'm really excited to jam with it. The sound of this drum is so pure and immersive, and the build quality is excellent. They definitely take pride in their work manufacturing these. 5/5 Stars from me.

          My D major Rav Vast arrived nearly three weeks ago. Within 5 minutes, without instructions, and with zero percussive experience, I was playing music. Absolutely surreal. And the sound...

          Thank you Rav Team for bringing to the world something truly beautiful.

          First of all, the instrument is amazing and the sound is totally stunning, also a quality is the best. In the first place I wanted to choose something more "mystical", but then after some research on YT I realized I need more simple and happy scale for my first RAV. It was very good choice! I love the D major tuning, but I am tempted to try some other scales in future :D.  Moreover, the customer support was very helpful and everything was solved straight away, because I had accidentally made an order from russia based shop.

          It has been a week since I received my RAV Drum D major and I am in love with it. The sound is amazing and the quality of the instrument is nothing short of being top notch! Customer service has been very helpful and the packaging was done properly. I think the D Major scale is perfect for people who are looking for their first RAV Drum. I am sure this first RAV Drum will not be my last!

          I received my RAV drum in D Major yesterday and have played for hours already! There is simply no way I can describe the beauty of this instrument - words cannot do it justice. The sound can be mellow or bright, relaxing or uplifting, thoughtful or joyous. The harmonies are indescribable - that you can get such complexity of sound with the simplest strokes is astonishing. For decades, I have loved Celtic melodies and relaxing instrumental solos, and now, I can play such music effortlessly! It is a magnificent instrument to improvise on, since you cannot hit a wrong note.

          From a physical standpoint, the RAV drum is sturdily built and perfectly tuned. It is also an exquisite work or art in its own right. The RAV team is tremendously responsive and helpful; I was thrilled to receive my RAV - from Russia to the US - in less than a week. It is packaged well to ensure that it arrives in "mint condition."

          My thanks to the RAV team for this dream come true!

          First time with a Rav, and first time with a drum by the way. I'm a harpist and wanted to try something different, a friend that i can bring with me in the forest. Well, the Rav is not light as a feather, but quite much than my harp 😁. It's  really beautiful, and sounds wonderfully.
          And for those who are musicians, it's good to note that it's perfectly tuned. Thanks to all the team for this awesome piece of art !

          Just received on yesterday

          Fine tuning (that I’ve immediately verified) and  really delicious sound….

          Very impressed.

          My consideration:

          Comparing Rav Vast ( which is a steel tongue drum) to traditional handpans I’ve immediately noted that he

          guarantees  a sound with much  more sustain compare the other instruments

          I don’t know the reason why, may be it is related to my fingers touch or maybe to particular design of the producer…who may says ?

          Then, let me spend few words about Rav Staff:

          Great (Top) service, fast and detailed delivery, kind and prompt assistance for everything

          100% Satisfied. Thank you guys for all.

          To who those are reading this msg. let me says :  do not hesitate, if you try it, you will get it !
