MAG F# Kurd Mutant 14
-
While you'll often hear me rave about the low rumble of some of the handpans here that have dings (center low notes) in the F2 or even G2 octave, I don't spend enough time praising the ones that primarily occupy higher registers. Some handpans are are double basses, some are cellos, and some, like this one with an F#3 ding, are violins, which makes for some delightful sonic flavors, even with a more traditional scale like the Kurd.
As I've mentioned elsewhere, the "mutant" handpans are just those with a bunch of extra notes squeezed (usually) on the top shell, near the ding. Because of simple space considerations, this usually lends itself to higher pitches, and the extended upper register has the potential for a whole lot of beautiful music.
Please note: The video you see here (from MAG Instruments) features the 20-note version of this handpan, with 6 extra bottom notes (some of which are lower than the ding).
