Collection: Low Pygmy Scale Handpan Drums
Pentatonic version of a minor scale.
It has its root note on the Ding, and then a major 2nd, its minor 3rd, perfect 5th and minor 7th.
A deeper variation of the "Pygmy", starting at the second in the ring around the Ding. This requires a different way of playing, which in our eyes is especially suitable for melodic playing. We recommend it to advanced players.
