All I know about Hang sound models I published in the <a href="http://www.hangblog.org/the-hang-lexicon/#soundmodels" rel="nofollow">Hang Lexicon</a> and in the article <a href="http://www.hangblog.org/hang_sound_models/" rel="nofollow">Hang Sound Models</a>. Because the D is the centre of the Integral Hang one can say that all notes belong to the D minor scale. Hi Ranganatha,

I await with great excitement to receive my integral hang in December. Truly an instrument born of the heart. I am curious if the scale for the new 2008 Hang has a particular origin? A name? I feel sad there is not a variety to choose from, though, I am grateful overall. Peace to all. Greetings. I await with great excitement to receive my integral hang in December.

This worldwide first demonstration on YouTube wasn't made to show the player's virtuosity but to demonstrate the basics of the new Integral Hang. And by the way: "The allure of Hang playing does not lie in virtuosity, but in playing intuitively, in such a way as to allow space for these sounds." the Hang Makers wrote when they introduced the Hang of the year 2007. And in my point of view this is an important awareness when someone begins the journey with his Hang. Robert, your playing is far from being clumsy.

I am just starting to understand the overtone generative properties of the Hang, and I am not really specifically displaying their possibilities, rather, just simply 'playing around' the tone field. I am finding that where and how you strike makes a significant difference, but I am far from proficient in knowing how to approach the sweet spots. Wow, I’m famous now!
