Handpan F2 Low Pygmy – is a captivating melodic percussion instrument, consisting of two interconnected metal hemispheres: the DING (upper part) and the GU (lower part). The DING side is crafted with 9 tonal fields arranged in a "tonal circle" around the central dome (DING), producing a unique and resonant sound. The GU side features a 10 cm resonator hole, which can be played like an Udu drum or used to manipulate the sound from the DING side. Additionally, the GU has a specialized damper in the central dome, enhancing the instrument's deep bass effect, giving it a truly unique and beautiful low resonance.
The handpan is played by striking the tonal areas with fingertips, thumbs, or the base of the palms, producing soothing and harmonious melodies. Players can hold the handpan in their lap or place it on a stand, making it versatile for different playing styles. Its intuitive tuning in F2 Low Pygmy (F2 F3 G3 G#3 C4 D#4 F4 G4 G#4) allows for improvisation, and the instrument naturally creates a harmonious sound, regardless of the order in which the notes are played.
