Meinl HPSTL101 Sonic Energy Handpan

The sensory handpan is hand forged from top-grade stainless steel with great care and precision that results in exquisite, ethereal sounds that fill the space around you with ambient tone. Its visually stunning vintage gold finish makes a statement before you even play it. At 22” in diameter, this handpan is tuned to the popular D Amara scale (A4/a' 440 Hz) with 10 notes.

A Handpan allows you to produce clear and pure tones by hand. These tones have a very relaxing and calming effect on people. Since the Handpan emits soothing sounds, it is perfect to be combined wih other meditative or percussive instruments.

To play the Handpan, it is positioned on the lap. Tones or chords can be produced simply by striking one or more tone fields with your fingers. After learning the basic striking technique, you can intuitively start playing and creating your own melodies.

Anyone can enjoy its relaxing sound and create music with no prior skill because each note complements all others, meaning there are no wrong notes you can hit.

The root note is in the center with the rest of the scale surrounding it in nine pitch fields that produce a pure, calming, and resonant sound. On the underside of our Sensory Handpan are two sound holes that face outward in opposite directions to provide a completely immersive sound effect for both the player and listeners. Included with all Sensory Handpans are two removable sound tubes that allow you to alter the tonal qualities of the instrument. The longer tube is placed in the sound hole facing the lower pitches of the handpan, and the shorter tube faces the higher pitches.

The immersive effect of this handpan makes it perfect for sound healing retreats, sound baths, meditation or just to calm your mind in the morning or at night before sleep. Handpans are used for self-meditation, playing in a band, or looping with any other percussion instrument. This is a fantastic instrument to use as a gateway to relaxation and learning melodies.

Due to its basic tuning of 440 Hz, it can be wonderfully combined with other instruments.

Included with the handpan are a stainless steel protection cover, a soft storage cover, and a heavy-duty padded travel bag with synthetic wool interior, adjustable backpack straps, and a strong carrying grip.
