This is a pristine, mint condition Ursa Minor Halo. It is in perfect cosmetic condition and in perfect tune.Here are two videos this particular scale being played by other people:<a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JzfV1WI4rgA">Video 1</a><a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZnI5_L1PRSA">Video 2</a>The Halo is Pantheon Steel's contribution to a new twenty-first century family of instruments and sound sculpture, descended from the steel pan, which we call the handpan.Handpans are resonant steel instruments played by hand in the lap, designed to engage the body and mind of the player in a new way, marrying rhythm, melody, and harmony in a single flow. Rich in timbre and very expressive, and often with no "wrong" notes to play, handpans are made for free improvisation and meditative exploration. There as many styles of play as there are players.While unique in its specifics, our own Halo was inspired by a revolutionary and evolutionary twenty-first century sound sculpture invented in Switzerland, and familiar to many of our customers. Originally we used this space to express our personal gratitude to that sculpture's creators, but they have asked that we not mention it by name. Out of respect to their wishes, we have removed those remarks and other references throughout our website, but our gratitude remains the same and ongoing.With the Halo we believe we demonstrate respect for the original's creators by not making a copy of their unique sculpture. Instead, over the past five years and more we have developed our own custom processes and materials in pursuit of a creation with a new voice. We feel we realized that vision in the Halo, an instrument with a soulful and rich timbre of its own, one capable of a powerful sonic experience unlike any other. <a href="http://pantheonsteel.com/AboutTheHalo.aspx">Pantheon Steel Home Page</a>
