About Our Studio
Sharing the healing power of handpan music through community, learning, and mindful expression.
Our Story
Singapore Handpan Studio was born from a deep love for the ethereal, meditative sounds of the handpan drum. Founded in Singapore, our studio has become a sanctuary for music lovers seeking peace, healing, and creative expression.
What started as a personal journey of musical discovery has evolved into a thriving community of musicians, wellness enthusiasts, and anyone drawn to the transformative power of handpan music.
We believe that music has the power to heal, connect, and inspire. Through our workshops, events, and community gatherings, we aim to share this beautiful instrument with others and create meaningful connections through sound.
