Event Dates
Handpan Workshop
The Music and Consciousness workshop is for beginners with Tilo Wachter
Dates : Saturday 19.07. 11am-5pm and Sunday 20.07. 10am-4pm
Fees: Handpan – Workshop (12-hour intensive, max. 8 participants): 270.00
Rental instruments are available on request. (For both days: 30€.)
We cover the following themes – Listening to music through the body and breathing – Flow improvisation framework – Basic strokes & coordination – Every ‘mistake’ is an idea – Is the handpan an instrument for me?
The first encounter and initiation (up to a year’s experience) into playing the handpan is experienced as a global process: perception of the body, breathing and ‘listening without prejudice’ lead us towards musical flow!
However simple the handpan may seem at first, it invites us to take new paths. We use this invitation as a chance to explore new sounds and movements with a ‘beginner’s mind’, listening in amazement: You can hear your own music resonating.
In this workshop, I use elements of trauma-sensitive coaching, music therapy and ‘Gestalt-therapie’ as well as breathing and bodywork. It is therefore an ideal introduction for all music, body, psychological and trauma therapists who wish to integrate music as a medium into their work.
