1500-`1600 Saturdays. April 5/12/19/26 HK$2600 including rental of handpan to take home to practice during the length of the workshop. If you rent the handpan for a number of consecutive months the handpan is yours to keep. HK$1650 class excluding handpan (bring your own preferably D minor scale) Handpans first hit the streets in 2007 and have rapidly grown in popularity worldwide. Their appeal lies in their ability to blend the sounds of a steel drum with more varied tonal texture and rhythm plus they are easy to carry. Making them a firm favourite of buskers, sound practitioners and musicians. Allow your creativity to flourish as you develop rhythms and learn basic techniques with Sasha. Class is suitable for all ages from rank novices never having touched a handpan to beginners. More advanced training available on request. About Sasha He is a percussionist specialising in handpan. He fell in love with percussive instruments around 15 years ago. African drum Djembe became his first passion. However, over time, he noticed that when he played percussive instruments, he was missing the melody... which is why when he first saw the Handpan, he immediately fell in love with it. He knew this wonderful instrument is exactly what he needed. Handpan is a new age instrument that combines rhythm, melody and harmony at the same time. The emotional and soft sound of this instrument fills the space and creates a harmonious atmosphere, which relaxes people. Playing it requires a creative mind. In my classes, I emphasise feeling on top of music theory. I adapt rigorous percussion technique for playing the handpan, which will be very useful in setting a base of creating any sound you want on this instrument. Sasha has lived in Hong Kong for 5 years. Handpan are his main instrument but he also is proficient in the Indian flute bansuri, didgeridoo and any kind of percussion. He has performed at Open space Jazz fest and with bands including CheeseTata and band Tarboosh. Music is how your feelings sound like!!!
