Probably the most simple handpan instrument combination is two handpans tuned to complementary scales. Coordinating other instruments with hanpans can be difficult because each handpan is tuned to a specific scale that cannot be adjusted (without a great deal of effort).
That being said, there are beautiful handpan instrument combinations that musicians have explored over the years. Ultimately, the best combination is subjective, but some are easier to pull off than others. In the following, we’ll showcase some videos as well as offer some tips on how to combine a handpan with different instruments.
Guitars are fairly simple to tune, so ensuring the guitar is tuned to the handpan shouldn’t be too much of a challenge. D minor makes a great handpan scale choice if you intend on playing with guitars.
The Best Hang Drum Music
The following features a great guitar handpan duo in F# Minor from Kabeção, a Portuguese handpan sound explorer, and João M Nunes, a Portuguese composer and street artists self-trained in classical guitar. The result is haunting and captivating!
Didgeridoo is a natural fit for the handpan. In fact, a handpan of any scale is easily paired with a didge. Plus, if you’re extra talented, you can simultaneously play the digeridoo and handpan.
Sitar and handpan has a meditative and haunting quality unlike any other instrument pairing. It’s also one of the more difficult handpan instrument combinations to pull off. The sitar will need to be tuned to the handpan because sitars are traditionally tuned for each song played. They are almost like handpans in that they are tuned to a specific scale or raga, to use the correct terminology. To combine with a sitar it’s best to choose a handpan based in C, C#, or D.
