YATAO - Malte Marten and Alexander Mercks

“Jan's Handpans are all one in a kind. By the looks, the touch and the sound, you can easily tell that it is a 'Taopan', even though they are all different and unique. It shows once more that the personality of the maker engraves itself in the instrument he makes. He seems like a humble sage and a playful child, on his mission to explore the world of handpans, getting closer and closer to his perfect sound.“

Malte Marten - Yatao

"For me its always a big pleasure to meet Jan and his family. As warm hearted, present and open as his family are Jans instruments.
A warm Sound Color meets outstanding Sustain. 
Jan is one of THE adresses when its about high level quality Handpans in German speaking countries.”

Julius Rantala - Handpan Player and teacher

"I've been deeply touched by a stainless Taopan. A beautiful and unique piece of art that seems to carry and emanate the passion and kindness of Jan Tao himself. It's warm and powerful. The resonance is something that soothes my heart even on a very tangible and physical level. I'm so grateful to be able to express myself with it”

Julius, Rantala

"Jan Tao is a dedicated builder who keeps on hammering to the beat of his passion. His quest for a unique vibrant sound which features a beautifully long sustain has been fulfilled.

Every Taopan instrument that we tried at the school is much loved by those who have the pleasure to play it.”

I am using Taopans for a long time in my Handpan Classes and in the Workshops I am giving. I am in love with them and so are my students. The instruments have a wonderful inner depth, they are resonant and tuned with love."

"Ranvita Hahn is a musician, an Advanced Taketina® Teacher, and founder of the Rhythmuswelten School near Cologne. Since the beginning of the 90s she has led various rhythm seminars, rhythmic training courses and instrumental workshops and classes - conga and afrodrums, handpan / hang (own PanArt since the beginning of 2002), frame drums and taiko. Each of them is a musical experience that gives you inspiration for your own playing and rhythm. It is about different attack techniques, game flow, coordination and game repertoire. Depending on the duration and level of the workshop, polyphonic game sequences are developed that lead to the structure of a piece. The interaction of the handpans lets you immerse yourself in the experience of the groove from the very first hour. Experience music and rhythm in the handpan game and making music together makes everyday life disappear for a little eternity. "

"Each of us has the ability to produce sounds in the form of melodies or rhythms.
Playing a handpan with your hands enables you to listen to these sounds and experience joy and relaxation.
The company Touching Handpan by Bernd Brinker in Lübeck offers you a workshop - First Touch -.
Here you will learn your first playing techniques on this wonderful instrument in a cozy little group.
In further individual lessons you can develop and expand your own ideas. "​
