SCHLAGWERK HP9DKU | 9 Notes-D Minor Kurd Handpan

A concert-quality handpan from Schlagwerk's German workshop: 9 precisely tuned notes in the D Kurd scale, hand-finished for a long, pure sustain.

The D Kurd is the most beloved handpan tuning of all: a full D minor scale whose rich, singing intervals suit everything from meditative drifting to rhythmic, almost melodic drumming. With 9 tone fields around the central ding, this instrument offers the classic layout every handpan player starts dreaming about. Each Schlagwerk handpan is built and tuned in Germany with the company's decades of steel-instrument expertise — stable tuning, sensitive response to fingertips, and harmonics that bloom rather than clang. As rewarding for sound therapy and yoga accompaniment as for serious percussion performance.
