my handpan journey

For me, it was love at first sight —perhaps even before sight. When I was about 6 or 7, I saw a television program featuring the steel drum players of Trinidad and the process of making steel drums.

I was instantly captivated by the sound and fell in love with the instrument. My parents were supportive and inquired at the local music school about steel drum lessons. Unfortunately, there was no teacher available, so they put me in flute lessons, eventually transitioning me to the drum set.

There was then a long gap between me and the handpan (which hadn't yet been invented at the time).

Around 2005, I saw my first serious percussion teacher performing a solo concert. During that concert, he played a solo piece on the PanArt Hang.

I was completely blown away. In fact, there is a recording of that concert, and after the solo piece, you can hear me in the audience shouting, "Wow!"

That was it for me. Really the beginning of my Handpan journey.

I´ve always had the urge to drum. But I always thought that at my age, it would be too late to learn an instrument. Thank you for showing me otherwise, Florian. Now I believe again that everything is possible.
