I wish I could tell you the real name of this wok like instrument that Chris was playing. He was making some truly wonderful sounds with it - as he accompanied worship leader Marc James playing at the Kingstock festival at the weekend.
What a wonderful picture! Iβve never seen an instrument like that before, and you captured the moment beautifully. I love the look on his face β such a thoughtful expression. You captured his emotion so well!
@sugarmuser@onewing@olivetreeann@summerfield thanks for naming the instrument and Babs for even supplying the sound for everyone's benefit. I was interested to read how the original maker of the instrument rejects the name of 'hang drum'. The original was just called the 'hang', and more accepted, to the makers, it would seem is the term 'hand pan'. They are quite pricey bits of kit!
