We proudly present our freshest release “Egypt Qanun” contains professionally played incredibly rich, traditional and complex melodies which is allows you to discover world of Qanun!

The qanun is a string instrument, descending from the old Egyptian harp. The name derives from the Arabic and means ‘rule’, ‘principle’ or ‘mode’. The body of the qanun consists of a trapezoid-shaped flat wooden board over which 81 strings are stretched in groups of three, with 24 treble strings consisting of three strings to each note. The instrument is placed flat on the knees of the musician or on a small table. Qanun strings are plucked with two plectra, one plectrum attached to the forefinger of each hand. A long bridge on the right-hand side of the instrument rests on goat (or fish) skin covered windows that carry the resonance to the box. On the left hand side, each course of strings passes over a series of small brass levers that are used to make microtonal changes in pitch. Since the qanun only includes 8 notes per octave, the player initially sets the levers to create the scale of the starting maqam. When the player needs to modulate to another maqam, they need to switch some levers back and forth with the left hand while playing with the right hand. Quick modulation can also be achieved by using the fingernail of the left thumb to temporarily raise the tuning of some strings.
