The black-finished Vargan Sysyuk Falcon impresses not only with its unusual but very well-made stable frame, but also with its clear, powerful sound, which is quite loud. This new Vargan from Sysyuk can be vibrated excellently from a standing position and has a nice soft response. You can improvise wonderfully with it and try out all the modulation possibilities, which are reproduced precisely. In terms of sound, this Jaw Harp plays in the upper league and is yet another example of Mikhail Sysyuk's exceptional forging skills.
By the way: Mikhail Sysyuk, who studied linguistics and is a master blacksmith, learned to love metal in a car workshop where he worked for a long time before his studies. Today he lives more than 1,000 km east of Irkutsk in the very small town of Darassun, where he handles the steel for his Jaw Harps with passion and precision.
Although he became enthusiastic about Jaw Harps and especially Gotovtsev's Yakutian Khomus quite early, he did not make his first Jaw Harp until he was almost 30 years old. At first, he made them only sporadically and sold them in a handicrafts shop in the nearest city, Chita. It was not until 2016 that the Jaw Harp world became aware of his excellent Vargans, during a Jaw Harp competition in Moscow. Since then, Sysyuk's Jaw Harps have enjoyed great popularity and are the talk of the town in Russia. And we are happy that you can find these wonderful Vargans in our assortment.

Russia is a country with a handful of jaw harp traditions: in Sakha/Yakutia, in the Altai, and in Tuva the Khomus (or Komus) is played; in Bashkortostan the Kubyz is known, and in Western Russia and in the big cities such as Moscow and St. Petersburg one can hear the name Vargan. An overview.
