In just three months, Klaïm brought together artists such as Waagal, Alem, Tom Vaylo, and the duo Serà around a pay-what-you-want model where all profits are shared fairly between musicians and technicians. The “apéro scénique,” a concept where each musician gets a free drink to step on stage, created unforgettable moments of connection. An A$10 raffle offered the chance to win three handpans, a tongue drum, and other prizes while also funding the event. Workshops in didgeridoo, Jew’s harp, yoga, and shiatsu massage, led by practitioners from Univers des 7 Chakras, added a wellness dimension. A pay-what-you-want festival and fairly shared profits highlight the spirit of solidarity that drives this event. Easy to carry, your handpan is the perfect companion for improvising during these friendly meetups. Bring your instrument and join this human adventure today.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eTake advantage of private online lessons for personalised guidance\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eFor tailor-made support, opt for private online lessons with renowned teachers such as David Charrier or Miloon.

However, for advanced sound healing and music therapy practices, you can pair multiple instruments, each tuned differently, to create a \u003cstrong\u003epanoramic sound of complementary scales\u003c\/strong\u003e. This approach, inspired by polyphonic blending, lets you layer handpans in C, D, or other keys for a harmonic-rich vibrational bath. The two welded nitrided steel shells diffuse vibrations at 360°, helping deepen relaxation and encourage a flow state during meditation or yoga sessions. Artisans collaborating with Instruments du Monde offer these sound configurations, with personalised tuning for each instrument. Whether you lead art-therapy workshops or organise group relaxation sessions, this technique enriches the acoustic experience. Treat yourself to this unique set—order your handpans today.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eDiscover the lower port, known as the \"punt,\" and its Helmholtz resonator\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe handpan uses a lower port, called a \"punt,\" \"gu,\" or \"port,\" tuned according to the Helmholtz resonator principle. Located under the shell, this opening amplifies low frequencies and creates a striking contrast with the upper notes. Striking the punt like an udu produces a deep, low percussive tone that complements the note fields laid out on top. Artisans such as Echo Sound Sculpture and Pantheon Steel meticulously tune the punt to ensure an even, dynamic response. This feature, inherited from the tradition of the ghatam and gongs, gives the handpan its \u003cstrong\u003edual melodic and rhythmic expressiveness\u003c\/strong\u003e. Order your handpan and master the art of the punt to enrich your performances.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Instruments du Monde","offers":[{"title":"C Celtic Minor \/ 440 Hertz","offer_id":51624818409811,"sku":"Handpan-Celtic-Mineur-C-440-hz-9-notes","price":2199.0,"currency_code":"AUD","in_stock":true},{"title":"C Celtic Minor \/ 432 Hertz","offer_id":51624818442579,"sku":"Handpan-Celtic-Mineur-C-432-hz-9-notes","price":2199.0,"currency_code":"AUD","in_stock":true},{"title":"C Sharp Celtic Minor \/ 440 Hertz","offer_id":51624818475347,"sku":"Handpan-Celtic-Mineur-C#-440-hz-9-notes","price":2199.0,"currency_code":"AUD","in_stock":true},{"title":"C Sharp Celtic Minor \/ 432 Hertz","offer_id":51624818508115,"sku":"Handpan-Celtic-Mineur-C#-432-hz-9-notes","price":2199.0,"currency_code":"AUD","in_stock":true},{"title":"D Celtic Minor \/ 440 Hertz","offer_id":51624818540883,"sku":"Handpan-Celtic-Mineur-D-440-hz-9-notes","price":2199.0,"currency_code":"AUD","in_stock":true},{"title":"D Celtic Minor \/ 432 Hertz","offer_id":51624818573651,"sku":"Handpan-Celtic-Mineur-D-432-hz-9-notes","price":2199.0,"currency_code":"AUD","in_stock":true},{"title":"E Celtic Minor \/ 440 Hertz","offer_id":51624818606419,"sku":"Handpan-Celtic-Mineur-E-440-hz-9-notes","price":2199.0,"currency_code":"AUD","in_stock":true},{"title":"E Celtic Minor \/ 432 Hertz","offer_id":51624818639187,"sku":"Handpan-Celtic-Mineur-E-432-hz-9-notes","price":2199.0,"currency_code":"AUD","in_stock":true},{"title":"B Celtic Minor \/ 440 Hertz","offer_id":51624818671955,"sku":"Handpan-Celtic-Mineur-B-440-hz-9-notes","price":2199.0,"currency_code":"AUD","in_stock":true},{"title":"B Celtic Minor \/ 432 Hertz","offer_id":51624818704723,"sku":"Handpan-Celtic-Mineur-B-432-hz-9-notes","price":2199.0,"currency_code":"AUD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0554\/9454\/1508\/files\/Handpan-Celtic-mineur.jpg?v=1769163456","url":"https:\/\/instruments-du-monde.com\/en-au\/products\/handpan-celtic-minor","provider":"Instruments du Monde","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
