The Klangauge® Handpan production is in full swing.
I am totally excited and glad that we can offer you such a special Handpan. The Handpan meets my high quality requirements for a musical instrument and you can tell. Already at the sight of the color my heart laughs. But, of course, it’s much more than that.
“Handpan” is the name for a group of musical instruments created in response to the worldwide interest in a hand-crafted brass instrument.
The first musical instruments of this kind were made in the Caribbean from old oil barrels and are still known as “Steel Drum”.
As material for our HandPans, we have chosen a special stainless steel alloy. This produces very full and warm tones. So the pan is absolutely stainless and I find the reddish color, which is created by heating the metal, much friendlier and more pleasant than the usual gray. In addition, it can be dispensed to the process of nitriding.

Tuning: Celtic Minor / Kurd # D / A Bb C D E F G A
This tuning has a very special sound character and above all, it is also very common, which means that you can play very well with other Handpan players or completely different musicians/instruments together. The atmosphere is easy to play and therefore very suitable for beginners.
Other tunings on request.
We now have video support. There you can learn the first steps while playing and be inspired.
There are also new tuning videos and change of that. More will follow.
We’re working on it.
The Hang was developed by the Swiss company PanArt. It was built nd sold over many years.
The “Bern German” meaning of hang is hand, because you play it with his hand.
The Klangauge has vibrating reeds, and the Hang has hammered sound fields. The Klangauge is much smaller and therefore easier to handle and it is also tunable. The Klangauge has nothing to do with the physical principles of sound generation with the Hang.
Jörg Künstler has been inspired by the Hang in the development of the Klangauge while, but the Klangauge ist a completely separate instrument with its own character, which although recalls in his playing style on the Hang, but of its design is a completely different instrument.
Like the HAPI-Drum, the Klangauge is an instrument of the group of slit drums.
