Handpans UK — Into Music Store

Handpans are one of the most distinctive and captivating instruments of the modern era — a UFO-shaped steel instrument played with the hands, producing rich, resonant, overtone-laden tones that sit somewhere between a steel drum and a singing bowl. Originally developed in Switzerland in the early 2000s, the handpan has grown rapidly in popularity across music, meditation, sound therapy, and wellness communities worldwide.

At Into Music Store, we stock one of the largest ranges of handpans available from a UK independent drum and percussion retailer. Our range includes professional handpans by Schlagwerk — available in a variety of scales including D-Kurd Minor, D-Celtic Minor, D-Integral, D-Major Sabye, and E-Minor Equinox — each supplied with a bag. For players looking for a more accessible entry point, Meinl Sonic Energy steel tongue drums offer a similar meditative quality in a more compact, beginner-friendly format, available in scales including A Minor, A Akebono, and G Dur.

Choosing the right scale is one of the most important decisions when buying a handpan. D-Kurd Minor is best for expressive, emotive playing with a wide melodic range. D-Celtic Minor is best for a bright, folk-influenced sound. D-Integral is best for a balanced, versatile tone suited to a range of styles. E-Minor Equinox is best for a deeper, more introspective character. If you're unsure which scale suits your playing style, our team are on hand to advise — call us on 01507 526517.
