Handpan Information
Each of the 8 notes have a beautiful resonant sound with plenty of sustain due to the instruments larger diameter.
The Handpan is your ultimate tool for enhancing experiences such as meditation, yoga, tai chi, massage, bowen therapy, and energy healing practices like reiki.
In comparison to the early handpans, which usually had a smaller diameter, this handpan is a bit bigger, with a diameter of 57cm. This means the notes are a little more spread out and because of this, the larger diameter creates a deeper bass note sound with slightly more sustain.
This 8 note handpan is tuned in the F Minor Akebono scale. The Akebono scale is a musical scale commonly used in traditional Japanese music.
It is also possible to use the other surfaces of the instrument to make percussive harmonics, such as snares and hi-hat like sounds.
