Sela 225 Harmony Handpan Bb2 Aegean 9 Set

Harmony Handpan Bb2 Aegean 9 - Stainless Steel!

The handpan is an absolutely beginner-friendly instrument where percussion and melody come together. Playing the handpan creates soothing, spherical, and long-lasting soundscapes that captivate both the player and the listeners completely. No prior experience or music theory knowledge is required, as all tone fields on the handpan are arranged in a fixed scale. On most models, it is not possible to hit dissonant, or "wrong" sounding notes. This allows you to follow your intuition while playing and quickly lose yourself in mysterious, dreamy melodies. With some practice, more complex rhythms, captivating chords, and two-voice melodies are of course also possible. A handpan is suitable as a solo instrument as well as for playing together with other handpans or instruments like tongue drums, guitar, or percussion.

Sela Harmony Stainless Steel Handpans are entirely handcrafted, perfectly tuned, and made from a stainless steel alloy. Stainless steel handpans have a significantly longer sustain than models made of nitrided steel and are therefore especially suited for slow, relaxing, and meditative playing. At the same time, they are very low-maintenance and ideal for beginners, as their quick, sensitive response requires less effort to play. Sela Harmony Stainless Steel Handpans feature a matte-gold finish, giving them a noble, high-quality look. Sela offers the largest selection of different scales in this category.

The Bb2 Aegean tuning (fundamental frequency 440 Hz) is based on a major scale. The central note in the middle of the handpan is Bb2, surrounded in a circular arrangement by the notes D3, F3, A3, Bb3, D4, E4, F4, and A4. Its four octave pairs provide an incredibly wide tonal range. The Aegean tuning sounds cheerful and enthusiastic but also gains a mystical, majestic character through the many low tones. Especially practical: on the underside of the handpan, a scale overview with the individual tone fields is laser-engraved.

Every Sela handpan comes with a bag made of tear-resistant nylon fabric, which provides optimal protection during transport thanks to its good padding. It can be carried either by hand using the two handles or comfortably as a backpack thanks to adjustable shoulder straps. A practical outer pocket offers enough space for small accessories like a metronome.

Handpan Stand

The Sela handpan stand is a lightweight, foldable playing stand specially designed for handpans and percussion instruments. The height of the handpan stand is 61 cm, making it ideal for comfortable seated playing. At the same time, the stand increases freedom of movement. With the attached cords, it can be easily and continuously adjusted in height.

Microfiber Cloth

The Kirstein microfiber cloth ensures optimal dust absorption thanks to its particularly soft and smooth surface and leaves perfectly cleaned surfaces. Even extremely sensitive surfaces can be cleaned effortlessly and scratch-free with this cloth, as its edging is very delicate and fine. The Kirstein microfiber cloth is excellently suited for dry use due to its relatively low water absorption.
