    Description

    Having absorbed the Altai culture and traditions, Pavel Potkin is a unique ethnic tool. Deciding to buy a harp, making a choice in favor of a vargan Potkin: a small tool is very easy to learn, literally from the first seconds of meeting him makes him admire, the tool is surprisingly easy to learn: even a beginner can easily extract sounds from it in a few minutes. At the same time, it is wonderful that the more experienced varganists “return” to this vargan. It is from this model that many begin their journey into the world of vargan music. Advantages of the Altai vargan: easy to learn, suitable for beginners and professionals, has a fairly strong body, does not rust (with time the body darkens a bit), has a rich sound spectrum. The vargan case is made of brass, the tongue is steel. Vargan Potkina is perfect as a gift, very original, beautiful, musical, all this will make them wonder and enjoy. Speaking of the Altai vargans, it is worth noting that they are all different, as there are no identical people, and you cannot meet the same harp. Even if the master creates one type of vargan for many years in a row, he will not succeed, and this is not what it is necessary to do an absolutely identical tool. Speaking about the varkin of Potkin, it is worth noting one distinctive feature: Paul, unlike other Altai masters who create vargans, creates a special weighted vargan. This is achieved by weighting the tip of the vargan tongue, by applying metal on it. This feature does not allocate a weighted model for the price, however, it gives it a special sound, a deafer and more drawn one, and a manner of playing. For special connoisseurs, we recommend acquiring both an ordinary vargan and a weighted one in order to feel the difference and get new sensations from the sound and the process of the game. Altai vargan, like almost any vargan, and in general, any fragile instrument accompanies the case for the vargan. Since ancient times, the guardians of the vargan were made, in which these instruments were kept. By making a retreat, you can compare the human body with a case, and the soul with the instrument itself - the harp. For many years, the cases in which it is stored have been made for each vargan.
