Develop your touch, and comfort playing with others in this beginner focused handpan immersion. Suitable for first-touch players, the purpose of this afternoon is to connect with others, celebrate each others’ musical expressions, and gain confidence in handpan playing.
Through a series of mini-games and exercises - utilizing body, voice, and of course handpan - we will work together to play together. In this session we explore stillness, interlocking rhythms, creativity, and structured jams. We will open our voices to encourage full musical embodiment, and get familiar with our own expressions through the handpan.
This handpan immersion is an elective course for the Soundwise School of Harmonic Therapy and is available for both students and non-students. Registration & payment info below.
