In reality, according to information shared by Felix Rohner and Sabina Schärer on their official website, more than a dozen instruments contributed to the handpan’s final form. Their first goal was to create a portable instrument that could also produce deeply relaxing tones you couldn’t hear anywhere else. Those distinctive, mesmerizing sounds quickly caught musicians’ attention and helped spread the handpan worldwide. Experience this unique instrument for yourself, and let its vibrations transform your everyday life.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eLearn to play the handpan quickly and easily\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eHave you ever dreamed of picking up an instrument and playing right away, without spending hours just trying to produce one perfectly in-tune note?

You’ll be able to play songs and simple melodies within minutes while having fun.

In that context, the instrument can feel like an excellent stress reliever—some scientific studies even compare its effects to certain medications, minus the side effects, of course. So why miss out on the benefits of the handpan? Beginners and experienced percussionists alike will find real joy in it.

And since the handpan is highly portable, you can easily bring yours along to share your playing with as many people as possible.

Today, we know it’s nitrogen-nitrided steel, which boosts strength and corrosion resistance. PANArt began making steel drums in the 1970s using this process, and it later used it to create the Hang. In 2013, PANArt announced it would stop producing the Hang to focus on designing and building other instruments made from \u003cstrong\u003ePang\u003c\/strong\u003e. This led to the creation of the Gubal and the HangBal—sound sculptures that closely resemble the Hang, but without achieving the same phenomenal global success.

Today, the shells can be formed using fully mechanized processes, since that step adds little value on its own. But tuning is a craft perfected through experience, and it simply can’t be outsourced to a machine or robot. Using only their expertise and talent, artisans deliver thousands of hammer strikes until the metal can “sing” in harmony. That’s why quality handpans rarely have perfectly uniform tone fields and why you may notice small bumps on the upper shell. Order your handpan to enjoy a unique instrument and start your musical adventure today.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003e\nThe handpan: a relaxing and soothing instrument\u003cbr\/\u003e\n\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eWho would have thought that an object shaped like a flying saucer could bring so much well-being to those around it?

And yet, the handpan, or \u003cstrong\u003eHang\u003c\/strong\u003e, has quickly become a go-to tool for relaxation and well-being for many practitioners. Yoga, reiki, and even meditation teachers use it to help create a deeply relaxed state for the people they work with. Several recent studies suggest that music can help reduce blood pressure and stress—sometimes rivaling the effects of certain medications, without unwanted side effects. So why deprive yourself?

Today, you can even find handpans made from stainless steel or ember steel. One thing remains certain: without the influence of that iconic “exotic drum,” the handpan wouldn’t be what it is today.

It is a traditional instrument in India, as well as in several other Asian countries. In 1999, Reto Weber, a percussionist who played the ghatam, suggested the following idea to Felix Rohner and Sabina Schärer, two Swiss artists from the PANArt company: to create a new instrument similar to the ghatam, but made of metal instead of clay. This would make the instrument tougher while also opening the door to new sounds. Finding the idea intriguing, the Swiss couple spent nearly a year developing the \u003cstrong\u003eHang\u003c\/strong\u003e, the direct ancestor of today’s handpan.

To achieve this, its creators, Swiss couple Felix Rohner and Sabina Schärer, drew inspiration from the design techniques used in Chinese gongs and Indonesian gamelan. In both cases, the metal is shaped into a dome, which inevitably evokes the lenticular form of the handpan. By combining this structure with nitrided steel, similar to that used in steel drums, the first versions of the Hang were crafted in early 2000. Having quickly evolved into the handpan we know today, this instrument is an unlikely fusion of several sound traditions from around the world.

These Asian musical instruments are both used for religious purposes, but also in meditative settings, particularly in Buddhism. It’s no surprise, then, that the handpan has inherited this contemplative quality through the sound it produces. This is also reinforced by its tuning, which is often in a minor scale—a mood that naturally invites introspection. The handpan is therefore ideal for creating meditative, relaxing melodies that encourage listeners to focus on sound and experience the present moment.

In fact, the idea for the handpan emerged in the late 1990s in Switzerland, in the minds of its creators, Felix Rohner and Sabina Schärer. The first Hang—an earlier name for the handpan—was presented to the public at a music fair in Frankfurt, Germany, in 2000. However, the handpan draws inspiration from two other instruments: the steel drum and the \u003cstrong\u003eghatam\u003c\/strong\u003e, which has a much deeper history, dating back to the 8th century in India. It took several years of development and all the ingenuity of the Swiss company PANArt to produce the first fully functional handpan. After this musical invention became a commercial success, hundreds of other makers followed in Felix Rohner and Sabina Schärer’s footsteps, helping spread the handpan worldwide.

With very little technique and, above all, virtually no knowledge of music theory, you can absolutely create beautiful melodies. In fact, many experts on this \u003cstrong\u003epercussion instrument\u003c\/strong\u003e have never studied music theory, which shows that musicality and theory don’t always go hand in hand. So even if you’ve never picked up an instrument before, don’t let that hold you back. The handpan can be the key that unlocks your creativity and lets you share it with the world. You’ll feel a kind of satisfaction that’s hard to find anywhere else.

This has been highlighted by dozens of studies involving more than 10,000 participants. It’s been shown that music therapy, i.e., using music and instruments as part of a therapeutic approach, tends to calm and soothe people. With this in mind, researchers are even exploring whether certain anti-stress medications, which can cause unwanted side effects, could be complemented—or partly replaced—by music or by practicing an instrument such as the handpan or \u003cstrong\u003eHang\u003c\/strong\u003e.

To understand how that happened, it helps to look back at the Hang’s creation. In 2000, Felix Rohner and Sabina Schärer, two Swiss residents, developed the Hang by drawing inspiration from several other instruments. They registered the name as a trademark to protect their intellectual property. The problem was that demand quickly outpaced supply, leaving many people unable to buy a \u003cstrong\u003eHang\u003c\/strong\u003e. So, starting in 2007, slightly modified copies began appearing under multiple names, including “handpan,” which is the term that ultimately stuck. In other words, the handpan emerged to fill the gap the Hang could no longer meet.

Workshops are organized to introduce and improve the skills of young players who are eager to learn. It is this spirit of sharing and passion that awaits you at these events. You’ll also have the opportunity to forge links with other percussionists who, like you, are eager to participate in these wonderful gatherings.

Like the gong or Tibetan singing bowl, you can now find specialists leading what’s called a sound bath using various instruments, including the handpan. Yoga and meditation practitioners also turn to its soothing sounds to reach a state of contemplation more quickly than with breathing or visualization exercises alone. According to some musicians, the handpan emits very special frequencies that give it a soothing quality when listened to.

In 1999, a percussionist named Reto Weber traveled to Switzerland to visit the PANArt company to have one of his steel drums tuned, a Caribbean instrument the Swiss company specialized in. During his stay, he spoke with Felix Rohner and Sabina Schärer, two artisans at PANArt, about his desire to develop a kind of Indian ghatam made entirely of metal. That conversation sparked the idea for a brand-new sound instrument: the \u003cstrong\u003eHang\u003c\/strong\u003e. Given its success, PANArt was unable to keep up with demand from musicians around the world. As a result, other makers began creating Hang-inspired instruments with slight design changes, which came to be known as handpans. Since then, the instrument has continued to evolve, including the rise of “mutant” models and versions with bottom notes.

Add to that the fact that you don’t need formal music theory training to enjoy it, and you get an instrument you can simply tap in rhythm to feel relaxing effects right away. That’s why the handpan has become a favorite among sound therapy and holistic wellness practitioners, alongside Tibetan singing bowls, gongs, and even the kalimba.

It’s the original instrument that inspired what later became known as the handpan. When the Hang debuted in 2000, it was showcased at trade shows and music events without immediately becoming a massive hit. Things changed with the rise of social media and, especially, YouTube in 2005, as musicians helped introduce the Hang’s mesmerizing sound to a much wider audience. Demand for PANArt’s Hang skyrocketed so quickly that the company could no longer keep up. To make this type of instrument accessible to more players, other makers began producing their own versions—more or less similar—which came to be called handpans. In the meantime, \u003cstrong\u003eHang\u003c\/strong\u003e became a registered trademark, and the term handpan ultimately became more widely used than Hang.

This is because although the main frequency, that of the note played, is the same, the other frequencies that accompany it are all distinct from one instrument to another. This is why it is easy for anyone to recognize a piano from a violin or a saxophone. That’s also why the \u003cstrong\u003ehandpan\u003c\/strong\u003e offers unique sounds you won’t find anywhere else.

Originally, in the early 2000s, the Hang was invented by Felix Rohner and Sabina Schärer, two Swiss craftsmen from the PANArt company. The first generations of \u003cstrong\u003eHang\u003c\/strong\u003e, built in the company’s workshops in Bern, offered more than 45 different tunings inspired by musical scales from around the world, such as Akebono, Hijaz, and Zhi Diao. As materials and the concept kept improving, the Hang’s shape was refined to achieve better acoustics. The second generation of Hang instruments offered far fewer sound variations for interested buyers. In parallel, other makers used the Hang as a starting point to create handpans. Some were even described as “mutants” because they featured notes between the ding and the outer circle of notes. Born from constant evolution, explore the world of the handpan by choosing a one-of-a-kind model.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eExplore the different handpan scales for all levels\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe handpan is a \u003cstrong\u003emelodic instrument\u003c\/strong\u003e that offers a wide palette of tones to satisfy even the most demanding musicians. That’s why each handpan is tuned to a specific scale. Every scale uses a different set of notes that gives the instrument its own character. Some feel more mystical and relaxing, while others evoke Asian, African, or Celtic melodies. These scales also vary in difficulty. One of the most popular and easiest to pick up is D Kurd, with the big advantage of being soothing. That’s why it’s generally recommended for beginner percussionists.

When the \u003cstrong\u003eHang\u003c\/strong\u003e became available to the public in 2000, PANArt didn’t anticipate how in-demand it would become and quickly couldn’t keep up with musicians eager to buy one. PANArt also chose not to scale up production, stating they didn’t want to get caught up in a race for profit. As a result, in the mid-2000s, dozens of artisans began creating their own Hang-inspired instruments, changing the name to respect PANArt’s copyrights. The most common name became handpan. Since then, PANArt has sought to shut down many of these manufacturers for copying its Hang.

During the process, a conversation sparked between Weber and the Rohner\/Schärer duo. The percussionist shared an idea for a brand-new instrument: an Indian ghatam, but made entirely of steel instead of the terracotta traditionally used for over 1,200 years. The idea was compelling, and PANArt spent almost a year crafting the first \u003cstrong\u003eHang\u003c\/strong\u003e—which would later evolve into the handpan.

The original inspiration for the handpan was the Indian ghatam, an instrument resembling a jar or terracotta flower pot measuring about 20–24 in (50–60 centimeters) in diameter, which the percussionist strikes with their hands to produce sound. The idea was then to transform the \u003cstrong\u003eghatam\u003c\/strong\u003e into a 100% metal sound object. To achieve this, nitrided steel—used for the \u003cstrong\u003esteel drum\u003c\/strong\u003e, an instrument from Trinidad and Tobago in the Caribbean—was chosen for its acoustic properties. Drawing on many other instruments such as the musical saw and bells, the characteristic shape of the handpan was developed.

It all started in Switzerland in 1999, when renowned percussionist Reto Weber visited PANArt, a company specializing in the design and tuning of \u003cstrong\u003esteel drums\u003c\/strong\u003e. Reto Weber wanted to have one of his instruments retuned. One thing led to another, and he spoke with Felix Rohner and Sabina Schärer, the company’s owners, suggesting they create an entirely new kind of instrument—like the Indian ghatam, but made completely of metal. The Swiss duo found the idea inspiring and got to work, using the knowledge and technologies they already employed for steel drums. That’s how the Hang was born, which later evolved into the handpan.

They first asked prospective buyers to write motivation letters and then required them to travel to Switzerland to pick up the instrument in person at the workshop, while signing an agreement forbidding resale for profit. Faced with PANArt’s refusal to increase production, other makers began creating their own versions, tweaking the design and adopting the name “handpan” to respect PANArt’s copyright.

To this end, they drew inspiration from the Indian ghatam and the Caribbean \u003cstrong\u003esteel drum\u003c\/strong\u003e—two traditional instruments that the handpan, in a sense, brings together. The goal was to craft an instrument that could be played with the hands, like the ghatam, but would be far more durable, since that instrument is made of terracotta—hence the choice of metal for the handpan. After several years of testing, the PANArt team settled on the most optimal shape and material. Now an essential instrument of the 21st century, be part of this beautiful story by purchasing your own handpan.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eLearn to play the handpan, even without any musical experience\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eUnlike the piano, guitar, or violin, which require years of practice and hundreds of hours of music theory just to read sheet music, the \u003cstrong\u003ehandpan\u003c\/strong\u003e asks far less of you. In fact, it’s a relaxation instrument by nature: it was designed to be played instinctively, without having to follow tablature or sheet music to the letter. For beginner percussionists who have never studied music theory, the handpan is a perfect opportunity to start making music. With just a few strikes, you’ll be able to improvise pieces and melodies with surprising ease. The smaller number of notes is also a major advantage, because it’s much easier to remember them than on a piano with dozens of keys. Choose the handpan to immerse yourself in an enriching musical experience and order your instrument now.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eEnter a state of meditation with the handpan\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eIt’s no secret that music and sound are perfect for bringing relaxation and calm to those who listen. The handpan can produce wonderfully soft tones, mainly thanks to its material and unique shape. It’s no surprise that meditation practitioners use it to help students stay in a contemplative state simply by listening to the sounds created when the metal shells are struck. Many music therapists also use the handpan to encourage a deep sense of relaxation in the people they work with.

The \u003cstrong\u003eHang\u003c\/strong\u003e first appeared in 2000, created by the Swiss makers Felix Rohner and Sabina Schärer, who spent several months developing this brand-new sound object. As the instrument’s popularity exploded, competing builders released their own versions under different names—and the one that resonated most with players was “handpan.” Meanwhile, PANArt, owned by the Swiss couple, registered the name Hang as its intellectual property, meaning no one other than PANArt is allowed to sell instruments under the name Hang. After discontinuing production in 2013, PANArt shifted its focus to building other instruments, such as the Gubal.

Anyone can play it, although a background in drumming can help, since drummers often have a natural sense of rhythm that translates well to the handpan.

When it was created between 1999 and 2000, its two inventors, \u003cstrong\u003eFelix Rohner and Sabina Schärer\u003c\/strong\u003e, cited inspirations such as the Caribbean steel drum and the Indian ghatam. Initially, the idea was to create an instrument that could be played like a ghatam, but made entirely of steel to ensure strength and durability.

The lenticular shape of the handpan emerged after numerous trials and delivered the best acoustic results.

For nearly 13 years, PANArt’s artisans refined the Hang’s materials and acoustics to produce exceptional instruments. But in 2013, PANArt stopped manufacturing the Hang to focus on other sound creations such as the Gubal and the HangBal, both closely inspired by the Hang concept. Meanwhile, \u003cstrong\u003epercussionists\u003c\/strong\u003e around the world were increasingly eager to own a Hang of their own. Other makers began building instruments identical in shape and feel, and the name “handpan” quickly became the go-to term. Interestingly, the handpan’s evolution also benefited from PANArt’s acoustic breakthroughs developed for the Gubal.

The handpan is perfect for this because it’s intuitive and highly approachable, even for beginners. As a result, it’s not uncommon for someone who has never played music before to walk away from a one-hour introductory workshop playing a few catchy tunes on their handpan. With the number of workshops constantly increasing, it’s easier than ever to get familiar with this melodic percussion instrument.

Some research even suggests that music can sometimes rival the effects of anti-stress medication in a completely natural way. What sets the handpan apart is the truly distinctive sound it produces—often described as relaxing, dreamy, or ethereal by players who sometimes struggle to put it into words. It’s no surprise, then, that the handpan has become a staple in many wellness practices.

They’re improvising, guided by their instincts and emotions in the moment. That’s why some musicians love taking their instrument to quiet corners of nature to find inspiration.

They drew major inspiration from the steel drum of Trinidad and Tobago in the Caribbean, as well as the ghatam, an Indian instrument made from terracotta. These two artisans were among the first to imagine a convex instrument formed by joining two metal shells to create a lens-shaped sound body. They named it the Hang, a word that means \"hand\" in the Bernese dialect, perfectly reflecting how it’s played. Refined year after year, the \u003cstrong\u003eHang\u003c\/strong\u003e was later taken up by other makers and, in 2007, evolved into the handpan we know today. Today, the instrument has spread worldwide, with more than 500 different makers across the globe. Order a handpan now and experience this musical marvel for yourself.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eDiscover why the handpan is so easy to learn\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eOne of the biggest strengths of \u003cstrong\u003ethe handpan\u003c\/strong\u003e is that it’s a truly accessible instrument, whether you know music theory or not. For starters, you don’t need any tuning skills because the tuning is done once during manufacturing. That means you can start playing melodic patterns as soon as you pick it up—something most instruments, especially string instruments, can’t offer right away. The handpan also encourages an intuitive, percussive approach. Sheet music and tablature are rare because handpan players tend to share ideas and compositions directly rather than relying on written notation. As a result, you don’t need years of formal training to enjoy the handpan. Just sit down for a few minutes and you’ll be creating gentle melodies in no time. Let yourself be drawn into its endless possibilities and order your first handpan today.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eDiscover how the handpan contributes to your mental relaxation\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eWhen it was created in Switzerland, more specifically in the small town of Bern, one of the goals of Félix Rohner and Sabina Schärer was to offer an \u003cstrong\u003einstrument with truly unique\u003c\/strong\u003e and soothing \u003cstrong\u003etones\u003c\/strong\u003e. To achieve this, they spent several years refining Pang, a steel alloy enriched with nitrogen to create nitrides and produce sound vibrations unlike anything heard before. Thanks to those years of research, the handpan can deliver a real sense of serenity and well-being when played. Each note released by this metallic sound instrument is an invitation to unwind and slow down. That’s why relaxation and meditation sessions sometimes incorporate the handpan alongside other zen instruments. It’s also used in art therapy and music therapy to support people through difficult moments in life. Order your handpan now and treat yourself to moments of pure calm and tranquility.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eDiscover why the handpan is the ideal instrument to take with you everywhere\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eWith the handpan, expressing your creativity has never been so simple or so practical. For one, it’s played with your hands, which is convenient because it requires almost no accessories. And since it’s easy to carry and needs no external power source, you can take it anywhere.

Captivated by the steel drum’s sound, Felix Rohner and Sabina Schärer focused on offering the best possible models by carefully selecting materials. It was only with the arrival of Reto Weber, who suggested creating an entirely new metal instrument, that PANArt began manufacturing the \u003cstrong\u003eHang\u003c\/strong\u003e, the instrument that would later inspire the handpan, using techniques mastered over years of steel drum craftsmanship.

The \u003cstrong\u003echaracteristic sounds\u003c\/strong\u003e of the handpan are so complex that a craftsman must use a hammer to precisely tune every note. Some manufacturers have tried stamping handpans out with hydraulic presses, but the acoustic results are very poor. You’ll notice that on every handpan sold by Instruments du Monde, there are unique hammer marks on the handpan’s tone fields. In practice, it takes thousands of strikes on the metal shell to create a great handpan. That’s your guarantee of an instrument that’s manually tuned and truly handcrafted.

This creation grew out of a 1999 meeting with Reto Weber, a percussionist passionate about the ghatam, a South Indian clay pot drum. The duo used a \u003cstrong\u003enitrided steel alloy called Pang\u003c\/strong\u003e, enriched with nitrogen to modify its mechanical properties and produce rich harmonics. Presented at the Musikmesse in Frankfurt in 2001, the first-generation Hang had eight notes arranged in a circle around the central “ding” and was available in 45 sound models (Ake Bono, Hijaz, Pygmée, Melog, Zhi Diao). Around 5,000 units were manufactured and sold through a select few distributors. Buying one often meant sending a handwritten letter and waiting for months. After production ended in 2013, PANArt focused on the Gubal and HangBal, while other makers such as Kyle Cox (Pantheon Steel) and Victor Levinson (SPB) launched their own handpans.

A true 21st-century instrument, it consists of two steel shells fixed together and hand-tuned by artisans, resulting in a one-of-a-kind sonic character. The central note, called the “ding,” is surrounded by seven or eight dimples, each generating a distinct, harmonious tone. This design allows aspiring musicians, even complete beginners, to follow their intuition and spontaneously improvise beautiful melodies. The handpan fits perfectly into sophrology, meditation, or music therapy practices, where its soothing vibrations support relaxation and focus. It’s also used in concerts and collaborative sound projects, offering virtually limitless artistic freedom. PANArt instruments are sought after for their rich, deep tone, while independent makers offer a wide variety of finishes and original scales. Each model is unique, reflecting rare know-how and a hands-on process that can take several days. The sounds you’ll discover feel endless, with a soundscape that’s always renewing itself.

Its convex shape projects sound waves in all directions, creating an immersive experience, whether played live in a specialized center or enjoyed through recordings at home.

Music therapy practitioners particularly appreciate the phenomenon of “entrainment,” where the body naturally syncs with the vibrations of the handpan, helping release tension and stress. Contrary to myths perpetuated by some merchants, this instrument was never played by Shaolin monks centuries ago, and its initial production under the name Hang was discontinued in 2014 to limit its distribution. Today, artisans such as those collaborating with Instruments du Monde hammer each note by hand, guaranteeing a unique instrument that is both robust and delicate.

This tuning practice dates back to the 1960s, when steelpan tuners such as Winston Spree Simon and Ellie Mannette, the “father of the modern steelpan,” began incorporating additional harmonics called “shoulder tones” on the edges of the notes. For example, on a fundamental note E3, the octave harmonic E4 is doubled by an ideal shoulder tone at E5 (the second octave), creating a uniquely rich sound. In the 1990s, PANArt briefly experimented with these principles on its Hang prototypes, but it was in 2013 that Victor Levinson, founder of SPB, was the first to systematically tune these \u003cstrong\u003eshoulder tones on the central note\u003c\/strong\u003e, closely followed by Ezhan of Echo Sound Sculpture. Mark Garner refined the technique in 2013. Thanks to these developments, today’s handpan offers exceptional harmonic richness, used in music therapy and meditation for its relaxing effects. Discover this depth of sound by ordering your handpan.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eDiscover the step-by-step craftsmanship of the handpan\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eEach handpan is crafted in a specialized workshop, where two steel shells are shaped and assembled before being \u003cstrong\u003ecarefully tuned with a hammer\u003c\/strong\u003e by experienced artisans. This process, initiated in 2009 by Felix Rohner and Sabina Schärer in Bern, requires very rare expertise and can take several days. The upper shell, called the “ding side,” and the lower shell, the “gu side,” are treated separately to optimize resonance. The notes are created by dimples aligned around the “ding,” generally offering seven or eight distinct tones. This craftsmanship gives each instrument a unique identity, both visually and sonically. PANArt models remain the benchmark, while new luthiers now offer original finishes and exotic ranges. Whether you’re a beginner or an experienced player, knowing the origin of your instrument deepens your connection to its magical sound. This transparency in the manufacturing process guarantees the quality and authenticity of your handpan. The result is long sustain and incomparable harmonic richness. Order your handpan today and enjoy an instrument crafted according to the most demanding traditions.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eDiscover how the handpan dispels unease with its vibrations\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe handpan is a modern idiophone created in Switzerland in 2000, the result of innovation by Felix Rohner and Sabina Schärer, which has revolutionized relaxation and meditation practices. Composed of two welded steel half-shells, its convex shape diffuses sound waves at 360°, creating a uniquely immersive sound bath. Unlike unwanted infrasound emitted by poorly adjusted fans—which once caused discomfort and fueled legends of “haunted” houses—the frequencies produced by the handpan are carefully calibrated to a 1:2:3 ratio to create a sense of wholeness. Music lovers appreciate its use in \u003cstrong\u003esound therapy\u003c\/strong\u003e, where the resonance of each note promotes physical and mental relaxation. Today, you can find handcrafted handpans on the Instruments du Monde website, which offers personalized service and hand-hammered notes. Whether you’re enriching yoga sessions, meditation moments, or art therapy workshops, the handpan is a valuable ally for reducing stress and boosting well-being.

Cédric, who started an earthworks business three months before the 5th edition, installed permanent infrastructure with drinking water and electricity on the site to accommodate more than 7,500 festivalgoers. Before the festival, a Handpan Family event is held over two days in a more intimate atmosphere. Lithotherapy practitioners, sound journey workshops, and handmade jewelry stands make up the world of the 7 chakras. During the first edition, on September 19, 20, and 21, 2014, 800 people discovered this musical setting, while artists such as Alchimix, Balaphang, and Archer \u0026amp; Tripp performed on stage. Didgeridoo and jaw harp workshops, led by Jeremy Nattagh, complete the program to offer a diversity of sound. Bring your handpan and experience this family-friendly musical adventure.

A historic photo of the Oval Boys in 1944 captures the 16-year-old Mannette working in an open-air workshop. Mark Garner interviewed him in 2012 to detail his tuning methods, inspiring the artisans at PANArt to develop the Hang in 2000, the ancestor of the handpan. Unlike the first-generation Hang, limited to eight notes around the ding, the modern handpan has expanded, with more than 300 makers and new surface treatments. Panyards, often located near Port of Spain, were hubs of collective creativity where musicians and craftspeople experimented with tuning by ear—a spirit carried on at HangOut UK since 2008.

In this setting, handpan instructors typically rely on visual, graphic notation created specifically to make learning this percussion instrument easier. These “scores” are often inspired by resources shared for free online by passionate players and widely praised for how intuitive they are. That said, music theory classes are often taught alongside them, creating a hybrid approach that blends improvisation with more traditional sheet music or fixed tablature.

As early as 2007, Kyle Cox of Pantheon Steel introduced the term \u003cstrong\u003ehandpan\u003c\/strong\u003e to refer to these generic instruments while respecting the brand. At the same time, an Israeli distributor used “Pantam,” a blend of pan and ghatam, a term popularized in 2014 by Victor Levinson for his SPB. Bellart, led by Luis Martin Eguiguren Garrido, and Spacedrum, created by Philippe Maignaut, also adopted these names. Some even called the instrument a “UFO Drum” because of its futuristic shape. Google Trends shows that “Hang Drum” dominated until 2017, before “Handpan” reached similar popularity, while “Pantam” spiked in 2018 in connection with the “Pantam Stand.” In 2020, facing disputes initiated by PANArt and actions against Ayasa in the Netherlands, the international community founded Handpan Community United (HCU) to defend artisans. Alongside the law firm Bird \u0026amp; Bird, HCU launched a crowdfunding campaign in October 2020 to fund legal protection and support the growth of this art form.

While infrasound—frequencies so low they’re inaudible to the human ear—can cause discomfort and fear, the handpan’s frequencies are calibrated to encourage inner calm. Each note is based on a 1:2:3 ratio, combining a fundamental tone, an octave, and a fifth to promote a \u003cstrong\u003edeep and lasting relaxation experience\u003c\/strong\u003e. Music lovers, from beginners to music therapists, appreciate its ability to soothe brain waves and its accessibility without requiring advanced musical training. Whether you prefer the calm of a Hindu celebration, a Maasai ritual, or the gentle energy of a handpan session, even heavy metal fans recognize its relaxing power.

Composed of two welded steel half-shells, it projects high-resonance vibrations in all directions—ideal for accompanying your yoga or sound meditation sessions. Each handpan is tuned to a unique scale, but it is possible to combine several instruments with \u003cstrong\u003ecomplementary scales to create a rich musical universe\u003c\/strong\u003e. Thanks to its 1:2:3 frequency ratio, each note emits a fundamental tone, a harmonic octave, and a compound fifth, providing a feeling of unity between body and mind. In sound therapy, this mechanism allows the body to naturally adopt beneficial vibrations, promoting stress relief and muscle relaxation. Practitioners often pair the handpan with Tibetan bowls to amplify the therapeutic effect or use it alone to create a space of tranquility. Easy to play, this instrument requires no prior musical skills. Incorporate the handpan into your wellness ritual and enjoy an immersive sound experience—get your instrument today.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eUnderstand the unique craftsmanship behind the handpan\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eMaking a handpan relies on a complex process that blends art and science. Each instrument is hand-formed from \u003cstrong\u003etwo convex steel sheets bonded together\u003c\/strong\u003e, typically measuring 22 in (55 cm) in diameter and 10 in (25 cm) in height. PANArt innovated by using a nitriding process, which injects nitrogen into the surface layer of Pang steel to improve strength and stabilize tuning. After stamping, each note field is tuned by hammering to achieve the fundamental, harmonic, and fifth frequencies, while a lower hole, called a port, gu, or \"punt,\" acts as a Helmholtz resonator. The bottom side delivers deep resonance, while the top surface holds between 7 and 17 notes, depending on the maker, using different scales such as major, minor, or harmonic minor for a no-wrong-notes playing experience. The final weight, often 8 lb 13 oz–13 lb 4 oz (4–6 kg), ensures excellent portability. The forming and tuning methods, long kept secret by PANArt, are now shared and adapted by more than 300 makers worldwide, who explore new alloys and treatments to expand the sound palette. Order your handpan today and experience the precision craftsmanship and acoustic magic of this exceptional instrument.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eUnleash your creativity with the handpan\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe handpan offers \u003cstrong\u003eendless artistic freedom\u003c\/strong\u003e to musicians seeking to explore sound.

Some enthusiasts even organize collective improvisation sessions, either outdoors or at gatherings in unusual places such as caves, botanical gardens, or on building rooftops. Renowned artists such as Hang Massive and Kabecao regularly publish their sessions online, inspiring a global community. Dare to break free from the usual constraints and discover an instrument that stimulates your creative senses from the very first note. Intuitive improvisation is also central to many workshops designed to strengthen team cohesion in companies and raise awareness of active listening.
