About the Qanun
The qanun is a flat, zither-like instrument with strings stretched across a wooden frame. Played with plectra attached to the fingers, the qanun is central to Middle Eastern, Mediterranean, and Central Asian music. Known for its bright and resonant tones, the qanun is celebrated for its ability to convey deep emotions and create intricate melodies. Its unique pitch adjustment levers, called "pegs," allow performers to transition seamlessly between maqams, adding to its versatility and appeal.
