Handpan Ensemble: weekly handpan course for beginners and slightly advanced students
Would you like to play Handpan more regularly?
The weekly course is aimed at beginners and slightly advanced players who want to make music together regularly in a group and develop more confidence, trust and enjoyment in handpan playing.
My goal with the Handpan Ensemble is to offer music lovers the opportunity to explore the world of handpans, to play simple pieces together, to get to know chords, rhythms and melodies and, above all, to develop joy in (free) playing.
We will also combine the handpan with other instruments and get to know the variety of possibilities. Piano, violin, cajon or guitar can be used as accompaniment. In addition, the Sound-Sculpture premises offer three rooms that are available to us. It is possible to divide up group exercises, but also to withdraw to practise on your own.
Course content:
- Introduction to handpans and their playing techniques
- get to know different rhythms
- Using chords and melodies
- Making music together in a group
- Trust in improvisation and your own musical creativity

About the organizer
Ariane Schill
Hallo ihr Lieben, mein Name ist Ariane und ich habe bereits verschiedene Instrumente gespielt, Gitarre und Klavier, die Lust am Musizieren jedoch im Laufe der Jahre verloren. Die Handpan hat mich vom ersten Ton an auf eine Weise berührt, die mich unermüdlich motiviert dieses Instrument weiter zu erforschen. Ich begleite seit 1,5 Jahren Yinyoga Workshops mit der Handpan und bin immer wieder aufs Neue fasziniert von der Magie, die entsteht sobald Tonfelder angeschlagen werden und die Schwingungen au den Körper wirken und übergehen.
