Beginner to Advanced level. D minor Handpans are provided and you may bring your own personal instrument if you have one.
This session will focus on developing a basic understanding of handpan history, architecture, and sound production techniques. Participants will learn how each finger is used to conjure a wide range of tonal qualities and melodic patterns from the instrument. Concepts stem from a musical vocabulary that draws parallels among the musical traditions of India, the Middle East, and Western music. Participants will experience ensemble play and the practice of engaging their own ideas, listening (while playing) to others, and responding musically. This is a process that activates our own creativity and effectively establishes a musical dialog between two or more players.
WOOM Handpan Workshop is a great opportunity to learn about the handpan, to take your playing into new directions, and to meet some other players and musical people in our growing community.
