*Slow duple metre ({{music|time|2|2}} or {{music|time|4|4}}) by the late 16th century, though there is evidence that it was still a fast dance as late as the mid-16th century, and there are also examples of triple-time pavans from Spain, Italy, and England.{{sfn|Brown|2001}}
*Two strains of eight, twelve, or sixteen bars each.
*Accent generally comes on the third beat with a secondary accent on the 1st beat though some pavanes place the accent on the first beat with the secondary accent falling on the third.{{citation needed|date=September 2018}}
