Handpan Lessons: the SLAP how and when to play it

Handpans combine melody, harmony and percussion in one instrument like no other. In today s handpan lesson we look at the slap, one of the most useful percussive sounds on the handpan. We check out how to play it, 4 different ways to use it and where to place it in your patterns. Towards the end of the lesson, we revisit some of the patterns from last week s video and spice them up with some slaps. ,handpan, handpanlessons, howtoplayhandpan The handpan I play in the video is made by Victor Levinson.
