The Hang, a captivating instrument in the idiophone class, was ingeniously crafted in Switzerland. This unique instrument features a design that sets it apart, resembling a UFO due to its construction from two half-shells of deep-drawn, nitrided steel sheet, meticulously glued together at the rim. This construction leaves the interior hollow, enhancing its resonant qualities.
The top side, known as the "Ding," boasts a central 'note' hammered into it, surrounded by seven or eight 'tone fields,' each hammered to produce distinct tones. The bottom side, referred to as the "Gu," is a plain surface with a rolled hole in the center. Striking the rim of the Gu produces a tuned note, adding to the instrument's versatility. The Hang is also commonly known as a handpan.
Operating on similar physical principles as the steelpan, the Hang has been modified to function as a Helmholtz resonator. Its development is the culmination of extensive research into the steelpan and various other instruments, showcasing a blend of tradition and innovation.
