Handpan Lessons: Exploring 7/8 - Part 2

[@DavidKuckhermann]

Today we play some 7/8 Arpeggios, change key with one instrument and I think about things to appreciate in these strange times. What do you find most challenging and what do you appreciate?

[@Kingezpercomics]

Ahh! I am just now getting around to this weeks video. I'm not sure if the time difference would have made me miss it as well, but i would love to see the concert you did. If you by any chance have a recording of it would you be willing to upload it to KZbin? Or even clips of some songs from it? Would be great to here you while we are staying inside here in the USA and all over the world. Thanks David, your lessons have been great to watch during this time. Much love and Blessings, Stay safe and I hope your daughter is just fine. Prayers are with you and her.

Best hang teacher ever... EVER! Why are all my favorite teachers German? No joke. :)

[@lucienlattanzio1659]

Danke David du bist ein großartiger Lehrer

[@tasim1]

Thank you. My cat has spent the last 8 minutes watching your handmovements intently. She will probably be able to play better than I soon. Looking forward to your live concert.

[@DavidKuckhermann]

Hehe, cats are such curious creatures! 😼

[@phillozoph50]

I am a beginner.Got my handpan 3 weeks ago.Your videos are amazing.Can't thank you enough for your content.

[@DavidKuckhermann]

[@DavidKuckhermann]

Thanks dear Victor. It seems that the situation will stay tense for a while, but you never know ;). ❤️

[@michaelhandpan9675]

Alle Deine Videos sind Grossartig, ich übe danach und in dieser Zeit kann man viel lernen, vielen Dank Dir und alles Gute & Gesundheit !

[@DavidKuckhermann]

Danke Michael, das freut mich sehr! Genau, diese Zeit kann man gut zum Musik machen nutzen! :D

[@anthonywhite8301]

David, you are by far to me the best teacher on-line. I also joined your Handpan Dojo..... It is worth every dollar.... Much thanks !!!!!!!

[@DavidKuckhermann]

Thanks Anthony, that's awesome! 😁

[@philyounghandpan110]

Thank you again David. What a blessing at this time. Challenging on my Meridian G Hijaz Variant but boy helps me focus and brings me to centre. As a near 70 yr old my little children are all grown with little ones in your situation. I hope Frida gains full health and am sure as your partner holds space we all appreciate you holding space for us....🕊

[@philyounghandpan110]

As an add on... posting a test video on fbook yesterday with so many comments of thank you for the calm has prompted me to share more if it helps some find a quiet space...you've passed it on....🙌🎶🎵

[@readerenergy]

David, Thanks once again for another very nice lesson. I like the change up and that it has a little more length. I think the choice with your daughter is a nice one. My challenges seem to be mostly centered around being firmly positive for those who are having difficulty doing so, but it is the way I would approach it anyway, so it is a challenge I believe in. I am thankful for the examples of all the nice things people are doing for each other, as this time brings out needs for some. And on a more personal level, that I have things like handpan, your lessons, those of others, and so many other nice things and people to share my time.

[@DavidKuckhermann]

I hear you! I would also like to be a positive factor for the world around me - sometimes I succeed and sometimes I don't. (Especially when I don't sleep, it's hard to stay in a positive space - I have phases with insomnia and Frida usually wants to get up early ;) )

[@AyramAntonioMorin]

Thank you David, a hug

[@pansongmusic3987]

David thank you for this fantastic offering! I'm appreciating this time to spend with loved ones and musical instruments. Cup of coffee every morning is a blessing for sure! Wishing you and your family the best from Philadelphia!

[@IamYerdoor]

Thank you for the video. I wish for speedy recovery of your daughter.

[@DavidKuckhermann]

Thank you Bharat!

Interessant, die Tonart ändert sich. Man hört es deutlich.

[@alexaszlavics]

Please take care yourself and I wish you and your family good health! Thank you for the video tutorials!

[@guillermoperez2999]

Thank you very much ... since I follow your channel I feel that I am learning, I am not a musician but I really like this instrument and with your videos I manage to make some music and that is great, I admire you very much I am always pending each video you upload. ..I am happy

[@corwyn]

Great video ! I really like the longer composition, the key change... I hope that your daughter recovers soon.

[@DavidKuckhermann]

Thanks Corwyn!

[@xavierfabre837]

Great video as usual. Stay safe and take care of you and family

Awesome, cu next Saturday!

Be safe my friend! Great job on the video, waiting for Saturday night.

[@DavidKuckhermann]

You too Doran, cu Saturday!

[@ottolutz861]

I highly appreciate you for sharing the things that are challenging and the ones you appreciate! Such kind of sharing creates connection even in those difficult times! Tank you!

[@DavidKuckhermann]

That was my thought as well. In these times the connections we make in the online world seem to be very important. What do you appreciate and find challenging?

[@ottolutz861]

@@DavidKuckhermann well, I find it challenging that I have to move places soon and renovate the old apartment - and I have no idea if friends can come to help if there is a lockdown. I don't even know if I will be able to rent a van at all... But hey, I appreciate that we can still go outside and be in the park, have a glimpse of nature. And that we have music as our universal language that connects us :-)

[@DavidKuckhermann]

@@ottolutz861 Man, we are in the same boat. We were supposed to move to a new place the beginning of April... no idea if that's gonna work out at all for the time being!

[@ottolutz861]

@@DavidKuckhermann Ufff, moving soon as well? Good luck! Let's share tips how to get a Robbe ;-)

@@ottolutz861 Hehe, let's do that. Where are you located?

[@pieterdewilde5133]

Thank you so much for these great lessons david, it is really helpfull and fun in these times... i hope daughter will be better really soon!

[@DavidKuckhermann]

Thanks Pieter, glad you enjoy them! 🙏

[@tubular167]

Brilliant as usual..wishing the best for you and your family..your playing brings great calm..thank you David.😁😁🥁🥁🆒

[@DavidKuckhermann]

thanks for your kind words, that great to hear.

[@arhipmatusov8823]

Thanks for a nice lesson. It's quite enough time to practice in a quarantine, though it's yet not so fast for a beginner like me. Btw, I hope you and your family are doing well. Be healthy!

[@AnahataNaad]

Stay Safe Legend!!! Thank you so much

[@DavidKuckhermann]

Thanks Samuel, you too! 🙏

[@federicozanoni817]

Great work as always, thanks for sharing David! I especially like the chord change, I think I should dive into similar techniques for my own compositions, where I often find difficult to create progressions and changes in the sequences. Anyway, hope you and your family are well and safe! I'm from Italy, and I find quite challenging not to be able to meet friends and loved ones, and not to go outside. But I appreciate spending time with the family, taking time for myself and working on my handpan music! :)

[@DavidKuckhermann]

Yea, I feel the same. Good idea for another video: Common chord progressions for 1 handpan

[@pashasoofi30]

I hope your daughter gets well soon♥️

[@DavidKuckhermann]

Thanks man, I think she is already on the way up. 👍

[@nivaijavianitahandpan6459]

Muchas gracias

[@DavidKuckhermann]

de nada ;)

[@mamamiabia]

thanks for your videos =) they are such a nice inspiration! Can you tell me what to do if i got a handpan with just 8 notes? should i skip the line where you play with you 9th note?

[@anth9794]

Thank you David such a wonder piece of art you are sharing. I am new to thr handpan and noticed I have 8 notes, I was trying to figure out the harmony notes and realized you are playing on a 9 note pan. Is the a way I can adapt to this? Many thanks.

[@AnniM88]

I am saving this video to practice in the future- I am currently doing your beginner course. I am looking forward to see your concert!!

[@DavidKuckhermann]

Awesome, how do you like the course so far?

[@AnniM88]

@@DavidKuckhermann It's awesome !!!! Really great for me and I am having a lot of fun to practice (especially now :))

[@DavidKuckhermann]

@@AnniM88 Awww, so glad to hear that!!!

[@TheSeeking7]

Hi, David. Love your videos! Am just a beginner with no music background and am learning handpan from your videos. Could you share what are the chords with those combinations? I managed to get 3 (C) 5 (E) 7 (G) that means its a C and 1 3 6 is F? Am not able to get 2 4 6 and 2 6 9 or am I even getting it correctly? Thanks. Wishing you and family and all who are watching this video safe and well!

[@mael1561]

Hey David thank you so much ! Will definitely be there on Saturday. Quick question : have you ever played a zenko ? It's a steel tongue drum's brand from France. I'd be curious to see what you can do with it, particularly the Harmony scale, which I find a bit tricky to master ! Be safe, See you

[@DavidKuckhermann]

Hey Maël, no, I haven't played a Zenko yet. You too!

[@Hulamula]

thanks david for your extrem geil work! which coffee machine do you have? ;) liebe grüße!

[@voivodess]

One thing I find challenging is not getting to spend quality time with my best friends and worrying about my grandfather. Three things I'm grateful for: You!! And clean water/electricity/internet! And of course my husband too, ahahaha!

[@DavidKuckhermann]

yea, those things are tough, I feel them too! Mr. C = best husband ever! I'm grateful for you too dear friend! ❤️

[@HighnRichOfficial]

Sorry ne aber du bist echt ein hammer typ, richtig korrekt

[@kami2302]

Guten Tag David, sprichst du zufällig auch Russisch? Я тоже хочу так играть 😥 Aber ich habe andere Handpan, mit 8 Fläche

[@romainballet7270]

Dear David, Very inspiring and well produced lesson as always! My D-Kurd has 9 notes (8+1) and does not have the high C (9 in your instrument). Which good replacement note/sequence would you suggest for the sequence 9669696 9669696? Wishing your daughter a quick recovery and looking forward to your concert next week! Best, Romain from California.

[@DavidKuckhermann]

Hey Romain, 8668686 should do the job just fine. Thank you! 🙏

[@volkmaro.7649]

David, du bist doch Deutscher, warum machst du alles auf englisch? Es gibt genug deutsche Handpanspieler, die es sicher begrüßen, wenn du dein Talent auf deutsch weiter gibst. Danke.
