Dialna - Hijaz דיאלנא - חיג'אז





Hijaz is an Arabic musical scale, named after a district in Saudi Arabia. In the past it was used primarily for songs of mourning, in both Arab music and in Jewish poetry, in songs of longing and emotion. It has two musical forms: "Rast" is used as the scale is played upward, while "Nahawand" is played downward.
