Overview
Handpan 22 Inches 9 Notes D Minor Kurd 432 Hz Diameter 56 cm Stainless Steel With Backpack Mallets and Stand For Meditation and Relaxation

The handpan with 9 notes in D Minor Kurd tuning is a handcrafted musical instrument that can be played with palms and fingers or with the included mallets. The body has a diameter of 56 cm and a height of 25 cm, corresponding to the classic size of 22 inches. The instrument is tuned to a frequency of 432 Hz, which is slightly lower than the standard tuning of 440 Hz. The nine notes consist of a central bass tone ding and eight tone fields surrounding it. It is suitable for beginners who want to explore the sound of the handpan, as well as for meditation, yoga, and relaxing music.

The tone fields are arranged in a circle around the centre, allowing melodies to emerge from the natural movement of hands across the surface. The D Minor Kurd scale is one of the most popular among handpans, as all the notes harmonise together, and improvisation without knowledge of notation sounds harmonious. The body is made of stainless steel, which gives the instrument a clear and long-lasting sound.

You can place the handpan on the included stand, on a table with a soft surface, or rest it on your lap. It can be played sitting down or standing up, with individual notes resonating from strikes on the tone fields, and the central ding providing a deep foundation for the melody. The stickers with note numbers can be used when learning from numerical scores, which are common for handpan music. They help you quickly orient yourself regarding which note is where, and you can play your first simple melody within minutes.

After playing, wipe the surface with the included cloth to prevent fingerprints and moisture from remaining on the steel. When transporting, store the instrument in the backpack, which protects it from scratches and impacts. The folding stand holds the handpan at a suitable height for playing while seated or standing.
