Handpan Method Book - Handpan spielend lernen

HANDPAN LEARNING BY PLAYING

This  method book is a declaration of love to one of the most fascinating  musical instruments of our time. The handpan combines rhythm and melody  in both a simple and a complex way. Thus, it allows – with or without  musical prerequisites – a fast, intuitive approach to making music and  can lead directly to individual, creative expression.

A wealth of  information and numerous exercises,

rhythmic structures, hand setting  techniques, ideas for playing, and valuable assistance for the inner  attitude during practice: all that serves the goal of achieving an authentic  and joyful way of making music and finding your own creativity. The  sheet music examples are especially designed for handpan playing and  can be understood without knowing how to read music in the classic way.

The examples are presented in 67 online video tutorials

The videos are taken from the user's perspective. This makes the exercises easier to adapt to the own handpan. The online tutorials are linked via QR codes or web links.

This method book is for all handpan players:

→ beginners and advanced students

→ music amateurs and professionals

→ right-handed, left-handed, and ambidextrous players

→ visual, auditory, and kinesthetic learner types

→ This book is applicable to all handpan tunings and any number of tones

→ and can be applied to related instruments (RAV VAST, Caisa)

Excellent Book

 

A big thank you to the author. Her book radiates love for the instrument and music in every line. It is didactically very well structured and enables well-founded, playful learning in small steps. The supplementary videos answer any question that may have remained open — one of the best books on learning an instrument for me. I especially like the little inserts that encourage learning and save beginners from frustration and overwhelming themselves. In other words, the way is the goal. I highly recommend it.
