Handpan Ashakiran

Choose the essential professional accessories for your handpan

As with any musical instrument, a few accessories are essential for playing the handpan comfortably and safely. First, a carrying case is key—not only to protect the instrument, but also to make it easy to take with you wherever you go. Next, a tripod stand can be helpful if you don’t want to rest the handpan directly on your lap. A learning book is also a great way to understand this percussion instrument faster and progress with confidence. Finally, playing gloves and a care kit can round out your setup and help your handpan last as long as possible. If you’d like to experiment, soft mallets can also be fun, but be sure to play with a light touch. With Instruments du Monde, most of these accessories are already included. Make your purchase now.

Consolidate your zen with the handpan and Tibetan singing bowls

If there are two instruments that go together perfectly in the realm of relaxation, calm, and even meditation, it’s the Tibetan singing bowl and the handpan. These two sound tools, invented on very different continents, work beautifully together to quiet the mind. While Tibetan bowls produce low frequencies known for their calming effect, the handpan produces special waves and vibrations that are carefully tuned by the maker during the crafting process. The result is a soothing combination that encourages deep relaxation and a sense of inner balance. Some people even report feeling an energetic release, which is why more and more yoga teachers are incorporating the handpan into their sessions. Choose the handpan for a well-deserved moment of well-being, and start this beautiful sound journey today.

Come to the Castle Handpan Festival with your own instrument

The Castle Handpan Festival is, as its name suggests, an annual event held near a medieval castle in the town of Frasne-le-Château each May. Originally organized by Étienne Salmon, this event isn’t just a place to play the handpan—it’s also packed with fun side activities, such as children’s storytelling, an escape game, a costume contest, and nighttime shows with pyrotechnics. When it comes to handpans, you’ll get to see artists on stage and maybe even perform yourself if you’re feeling inspired. Each year, professionals in the field are invited to share their knowledge with festival-goers who’ve made the trip. The handpan is a great percussion instrument to travel with, since it’s easy to carry in its padded case. Buy your handpan now to take part in the next edition—one that’s sure to be unforgettable.

Explore the Pang range, inspired by the Hang

After Hang production ceased in 2013, PANArt expanded its range with the Pang series, offering complementary instruments: the Gubal, the Gudu, and the HangBal, each featuring the Gubal, Gudu, and HangBal Pang nitrided-steel surface treatment. The Gubal, with its oversized central dome, produces deep bass frequencies ideal for meditation; the Gudu combines the principle of the African udu with the resonance of the Hang, creating a unique percussive sound; the HangBal, a hybrid between percussion and pendulum motion, invites fresh rhythmic exploration. Pang strings, added to certain prototypes, bring a harmonic dimension reminiscent of a harp. These innovations extend the Hang tradition while opening up new sonic possibilities. A go-to choice for curious musicians and anyone who loves innovative sounds, the handpan now finds its place within this Pang ecosystem. Find the handpan of your dreams now and join a community that’s ready to listen.
