Hang Drum TheArtOfFusion - Inner Voice
This video was made in the highlands of Scotland. The song "Inner Voice" is the first part of a trilogy composed in the traditional japanese akebono scale. "The Vibration Of The Hang" produced by das modular music, more about this piece, here.
There are only two people in the world that make these drums the inventors Felix Rohner and Sabina Schärer. They have a little workshop in Berne where every Hang in existence was made. Since 2006 the Hang Makers do not ship instruments directly nor do they sell them through any retailers. To obtain a Hang prospective customers must send a letter to request an invitation to the workshop in Berne. Worldwide offers for used Hanghang are rare, and prices in Internet auctions have been very high.
