In remembrance of my grandfather who during my school holydays let me be a part of his daily work as a sheet metal worker, I dedicate this song to all sheet metal sound workers around the world.

40 years work on the ring of steel in Bern, Switzerland

Categories: News, Video, History Author: PANArt 6th January 2017

In 1976 the steel­pan arrived in Bern. In 2016 PANArt intro­duced the Hang Bal. From the ​“round the neck” steel­band via the Hang to the ​“round the shoul­der” Hang Bal Spiel.

With footage and pho­tos from PANArt’s archive, Basil Rohn­er’s video gives us an overview of 40 years of work on the ring of steel.

Hang® Bal Spiel

Categories: News, Video Author: PANArt 23rd August 2016

The PANArt tuner team presents its new sound sculpture: the Hang® Bal. Hang® Bal playing is a dance. The player himself or herself becomes an instrument. Hang® Bal playing allows space for the individual based on a collective groove. Together, a free round dance arises. Whoever has music inside will find a place here.

The Hang® Bal enjoys design protection in many countries.

Hang® Urgu

Categories: News, Video Author: PANArt 25th April 2016

The Hang® Urgu offers a strong pulse-like bass (78 Hertz/Eb2) and a rich percussive palette. The bass can be lowered by up to one octave by varying the hand's position in the Gu opening. Its ringding is tuned to an Eb chord and serves a double function: a sound source as well as a place to excite the air which produces the bass.

Hands on Pang

Category: Video Author: PANArt 30th September 2015

Lyrics, vocals and Pang Sei: Felix Rohner – Urgu: Sabina Schärer – Pang Sui: Basil Rohner – Pang Sai: David Rohner

The deep bass sounds of Gubal, Urgu and Hang Gudu are the musical foundation of the Pang ensemble. However, the little loudspeakers in smartphones, tablets or notebooks and many earphones don't play back these sounds. Therefore we recommend listening to this video only with good speakers or headphones.
