“You’re connected with this instrument, and when you play it, you feel the resonance of the drum.”
Jerome Weeks/KERA
Gracen Lee plays the handpan.

You can go to a Denton coffeehouse and listen to a musician playing an instrument that looks like a laptop flying saucer. It’s known as a handpan, and the odd invention and the musician playing it have more than the usual relationship between performer and instrument.
