Tacta handpans are professional quality instruments made by Brazilian craftsman Rafael D’Arco. The sensitivity to the touch and amazing overtones make Tacta handpans some of the best handpans around. In this video Rafael beautifully plays 4 of his models and demonstrates a wide range of ways to play the handpan that we have not yet seen on our YouTube channel.

Feel free to ask me anything from circular breathing to music theory, from help with rhythm to understanding deeper levels of music. Though you may know me as a didgeridoo player, I have studied jazz and classical music for most of my life. Instruments I play include didgeridoo, djembe, handpan, piano, guitar, trombone, flute, and percussion.

This video will also be recorded at the same URL, so even if you can't make it live, you can still tune in and watch the Q&A whenever you want.

DidgeProject.com
Didge Project is a blog, youtube channel, series of courses and events, instrument store and a collective of musicians who want to help you use music as a tool for uplifting yourself and others around you. 

On our site you will find tips and tutorials to help you become a better musician, didgeridoo lessons, instrument features and reviews, and reports on the latest scientific research and spiritual discoveries merging through the medium of sound.

When we began in 2008 our main focus was on teaching how to play the didgeridoo, a wind instrument originating in aboriginal Australia and also said to be present in ancient Mayan times. After working with countless people it became apparent that most musicians play multiple instruments and that we have the community resources to help all musicians get better results. While we still provide didgeridoo lessons, classes and programs, our focus is to provide tutorials for music and instruments from all around the world.
