This handpan workshop will be facilitated by Baran Yildiz

Instruments (Celestial Sound) will be provided for the workshop to enable group exercises. Please bring along your own instrument as well if it is in the scale of D-minor (D-Kurd) and if you would like to play with it instead.

The participants are grouped based on their level of experience. Please ensure you are in the right group, or contact the organizer if you are not sure.

Level 1: This will be my very first time of playing the handpan

Level 2: I have been playing for a while and have participated in 1 or 2 workshops or lessons previously and I am eager to learn more and improve my skills.

Level 3: I have been playing for more than a year or two. I have attended a few workshops and lessons therefore I am familiar with the basics. But I don't get to practice as much as I would like to or I still consider myself in the early days with my handpan journey, therefore would like to improve my skills.

Level 4: I have been playing for more than three years in a consistent way. I have attended various workshops and taken lessons. I can play some patterns comfortably and have a good sense of rhythm and understanding of handpan but I still have a lot to learn towards becoming more professional

Level 5: I have been playing for more than three-four years consistently. I have done various workshops/lessons previously. I have compositions that I can play comfortably play but I am still looking to expand my understanding of music and improve my handpan and composition skills.

The workshop may cover one or more of the following topics considering participants' interests:

Practical tips and exercises to unlock the melodic potential of your instruments
Rhythmical phrasing to create musical conversation
Rhythmical independence
Using bass-lines to enrich your melodies
Making use of simple music theory principles in your compositions
Interdependence exercises to master a groove
