Organised by makers or associations, these courses immerse you in the workshop, where you can observe the creation of the two steel shells, the heat treatment, and precise hammer tuning. You’ll discover how Felix Rohner and Sabina Schärer laid the foundations for the Hang in 2000, then the handpan in 2009, and how PANArt continues to pass on this rare craftsmanship. During these sessions, you’ll try hammering the dimples yourself, test different types of steel, and understand the essential role of the “ding” and its 7 or 8 harmonic notes. Exploring the history and the building process gives you a complete picture of the instrument’s origins. Sign up for a workshop and \u003cstrong\u003eorder your handpan\u003c\/strong\u003e to continue this immersion at home.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eAttend the world premiere of the Hang at the Musikmesse in Frankfurt\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eIn April 2001, Felix Rohner and Sabina Schärer unveiled the very first Hang at the Musikmesse in Frankfurt, marking a historic turning point. This prototype, prepared in the PANArt workshops in Bern, was distinguished by its central “ding,” polished to reflect the stars, and its eight notes arranged in a circle. Visitors could explore ethnic scales such as Ake Bono, Hijaz, Pygmy, Melog, and Zhi Diao, all crafted from \u003cstrong\u003enitrided Pang steel\u003c\/strong\u003e for durability and crystal-clear tones. Only a few select distributors offered the instrument, and the wait to purchase one often exceeded several months. Today, this event remains etched in the collective memory of musicians and percussion enthusiasts, as it symbolises the genesis of the handpan. Seize the opportunity to relive this premiere by acquiring your own handpan.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eDiscover the Wild Naya Handpan Summer Academy in the heart of nature\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe Wild Naya Handpan Summer Academy takes place every summer in a Nature Community in Germany, offering a unique setting for learning and playing. This week-long academy combines handpan workshops, creative spaces, wellness, and community living. The outdoor stage, protected from bad weather, hosts concerts and performances, while the spirit of authenticity celebrates imperfection and stimulates the imagination. Improvised jam sessions around the fire extend the conviviality until sunset, while local makers lead masterclasses to enrich your practice. A friendly and creative atmosphere in the heart of nature encourages \u003cstrong\u003eartistic expression\u003c\/strong\u003e far from urban constraints. Lightweight and compact, your handpan fits perfectly into this immersion, allowing you to share unforgettable musical moments. Bring your instrument along to enjoy this experience and unleash your creative potential in a timeless setting.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eCombine the complementary scales of the handpan for a unique sound experience\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eEach handpan, designed in 2000 by Felix Rohner and Sabina Schärer, is tuned to a single scale, making dissonance impossible but limiting the sound palette. However, it is entirely possible to combine several instruments tuned to complementary scales to create a soundscape of unprecedented richness. This practice, inspired by the concept of sound therapy, allows handpans tuned to C, D, or other keys to be played simultaneously according to therapeutic needs. Handcrafted from convex steel half-shells, these idiophones diffuse vibrations in 360°, enveloping the listener in a deep resonant bath. Each note, generated according to a 1:2:3 frequency ratio, resonates with a fundamental, an octave, and a fifth, inducing progressive relaxation of the body and mind. In meditation or during a yoga flow session accompanied by Tibetan bowls, this technique of \u003cstrong\u003eharmonising multiple handpans\u003c\/strong\u003e intensifies cerebral well-being and muscle relaxation.
