Uncover Our Story
NVAGARAN began with a simple goal: to create a traditional Armenian frame drum for a local musician when none were available. That first instrument sparked a journey—one rooted in cultural preservation and refined through extensive experimentation and research. By combining traditional acoustics with contemporary tools and materials, NVAGARAN instruments honor the past—refined by the precision of modern craftsmanship.
What is NVAGARAN?
NVAGARAN (Նվագարան) is the Armenian word for musical instrument. As roots nourish a living tree, traditional instruments sustain a living musical tradition. Each NVAGARAN instrument is fine-tuned to preserve the timbre, character, and function of its centuries-old counterparts—crafted not as replicas, but as living tools for sound and expression.
This is your key to reconnect with the voices of the past—through rhythm, resonance, and reverence.
