FAQ
What is a handpan mutant and how is the 9+2 layout different in D AnnaZiska?
The Mutant Handpan features additional notes on the lower dome, in addition to the standard upper arrangement.

Which tuning should I choose – 432 Hz or 440 Hz?
It's a matter of preference. 432 Hz is best for quiet, meditative solo playing, 440 Hz for when you plan to play with other instruments tuned in standard. Both tunings work well for the D AnnaZiska—you choose whichever suits you best.
Is D AnnaZiska suitable for beginners?
Yes, the scale is intuitive and resonates well, so it's suitable for both beginners and more experienced players. The additional two notes on the lower dome give you more room to maneuver as you start to develop your playing.
