Collection: D Key Handpan Drums

  • D Major
    D Major is a scale with an uplifting and cheerful timbre, no wonder it was called “the key of glory” in the Baroque period! It is a popular scale among beginners. 
    The key of triumph, of Hallejuahs, of war-cries, of victory-rejoicing. Thus, the inviting symphonies, the marches, holiday songs and heaven-rejoicing choruses are set in this key.
    Besides, D Major will sound beautifully with a whole bunch of other drums: B Celtic Double Ding, D Celtic Minor, B Kurd, B RUS and Pan E La Sirena.
  • D Minor
    Melancholy womanliness, the spleen and humours brood.
    The tonality of D minor is frequently linked with somber, melancholic, or even dark moods. In classical music, D minor is often used to convey a sense of tragedy or sorrow, while in rock and pop music, D minor has been used to create emotional intensity.
    Despite its reputation for being a sad or melancholic key, D minor can also convey tension, aggression, and other emotions. D minor can be used in various musical contexts, including melodies, chord progressions, and harmonies.
  • D# Minor
    Feelings of the anxiety of the soul's deepest distress, of brooding despair, of blackest depresssion, of the most gloomy condition of the soul. Every fear, every hesitation of the shuddering heart, breathes out of horrible D# minor. If ghosts could speak, their speech would approximate this key.
