Santoor (also spelled as Santour or Santur) is the Persian dulcimer played with two light hammers (mezrâb) by striking the strings. Santoor’s origin goes a long way back until the ancient Babylonian and neo-Assyrian eras. Santoor’s contemporary versions are used in Iran, its neighbouring countries and in Greece. It occupies an important place in the traditional Iranian orchestra, it is also used in motrebi (music for entertainment). Santoor has a case made of walnut wood in the shape of a trapeze. The strings are fixed to the pins on both sides, you can tune santoor with the metal wrest-pins on the right. Santoor has a great melodic potential, 27 different notes can be played on this instrument. Its attractive sharp sound full of harmonics carries you away. In our catalogue, you can find a range of quality santoors that are made by santoor makers who have mastered their craft, namely Ekberi, Sadeghi and Azar. They are classified as standard, professional and special santoors. We believe you will find here the most convenient santoor at the best value.
