My new Handpan Voices conversation with Alexander Mercks is now live.This episode centres around Alex’s new album The Ordinary Epic, and the shift from improvising with handpan into composing more fully shaped pieces of music.The conversation moves through creativity, composition, improvisation, emotional connection, sadness as a creative space, and what it means to perform prepared music while still leaving room for freedom.We also talk about Handpan Pal, Alex’s intuitive learning tool for helping handpan players understand chords, move beyond patterns, and get unstuck in their playing.Listen on Spotify or watch on YouTube.PhilHandpanion / Handpan Voices by @philbegnett
