RAV Vast tunes

A collection of melodies

Let your fingers bleed :: 2021-04-27

This is a growing collection of simple tunes I often play on my Rav Vast. They appeared spontanously under my fingers, and likely evolved from basic exercises, so don't expect anything too fancy.

Numbers indicate notes from the the lowest to the highest, 0 being the ding. Since this layout is scale-agnostic and somewhat standard among handpans and steel tongue drums, these melodies should be pretty easy to play on your own idiophone.

If you're curious about how they actually sound, try the B Kurd scale.
