F Pygmy 19 - Signature Handpan

The F Pygmy 19 Handpan is part of The Handpan Temple Signature Series: a collection of carefully curated instruments chosen for their exceptional musicality, versatility, and expressive character.

About the Scale:

Scale: (C#) (D#) F – G G# (A#) C (C#) D# F G G# C D# F G (G# A# C)

The F Pygmy is known for its deep, hypnotic and introspective character. This extended 19-note configuration takes that familiar sound into an entirely new musical territory.

The top shell retains the intuitive and spacious character of the F Pygmy pentatonic scale, while the additional bottom notes expand the instrument into the full harmonic world of F Natural Minor.

With an impressive range spanning from C#3 to C6, this professional layout feels almost like having a small piano at your fingertips. The extended range opens up deeper bass movement, richer chords, brighter major colours within the key, and far greater possibilities for melody and composition.

The result is an incredibly versatile instrument designed for players who want the freedom to explore beyond a traditional handpan layout.

Why the Signature Series?

Every instrument in the Handpan Temple Signature Series has been personally selected or custom designed by Alessandro after years of exploring the handpan.

The Signature Series focuses on unique tunings that stand out for their playability, musical depth, and ability to inspire creativity.

Whether you're composing, performing, improvising, or exploring your own musical expression, the F Pygmy 19 offers an extraordinary range while preserving the intuitive beauty of the handpan.
