D Kurd 10 - Ember Steel
Notes: D3) A3 Bb3 C4 D4 E4 F4 G4 A4 C5
The D-Kurd is without hesitation the most classic handpan scale available. And for good reason, it can be both deep and dark or bright and happy. The choice of notes and layout of the scale makes it very intuitive to play and versatile at the same time. With this scale you have the full diatonic D minor scale.
D minor (and if you would start from the F, it is also F major) is a very popular scale in music, this makes the D Kurd a great model for jamming with other musicians. It contains all the white keys on the piano except for the B, which is a Bb in this scale. Most of the online handpan courses are also made with the D Kurd, so you can play together along the instruction videos. It is an excellent beginners model, but at the same time it will give enough options to play, due to being a very versatile scale. All in all, you can never go wrong with the D Kurd.
A side note: the patina on most ember steel handpans is not stable and the instruments are likely to change colour. This does not affect the sound or tuning, it just creates a vintage look.
