Another video of Dante Bucci on the hang, the steel hand drum of Switzerland. If you are at all familiar with the hang, you know all about how difficult it is to get your hands on one of these.

Being only a few years old, the hang is still made by just the two original creators, and as of the date of posting, they have taken a break from production for an indefinite period of time. With only a few thousand in existence, good luck coming across one! Maybe someday…

Until then, enjoy the amazing music of the hang in the video below, then Click Here to check out another unique music instrument.

The story of the hang is quite an exceptional one.

First off, we’ll leave it to your discretion, but I think it’s safe to say that the hang is one of the most entertaining and creative instruments ever made.  Secondly, the hang is produced just by the 2 original inventors, so simply coming across one is itself a great feat that involves months of waiting, a trip to Switzerland, and thousands of dollars cash.

Because of this, several hang-inspired alternatives have hit the market, among them the HAPI resting on my couch, and the tongue drums made in the backyard… melodic percussion instruments are the greatest!
