Like the handpan, it can also be partially or fully covered at the opening to create different sounds. The ghatam became an important reference point for the handpan, with one key requirement: the new instrument had to be made of metal. To make that possible, Felix Rohner and Sabina Schärer drew inspiration from the \u003cstrong\u003esteel drum\u003c\/strong\u003e, a metal instrument with its own distinctive crafting techniques. By using nitrided steel and steel drum-style manufacturing methods, the handpan was developed in just a few months in the Swiss workshops of the PANArt company. Add a handpan to your musical world and discover a whole new sonic dimension.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003e\nLearn to play the handpan with guidance from many experienced teachers\u003cbr\/\u003e\n\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eInvented between 1999 and 2000, the handpan now has decades of history—more than enough for many seasoned teachers to offer high-quality lessons to new players who want to start confidently.
