Have you ever heard of a Hang? It’s pronounced “hong”, looks like a UFO, and is the youngest new musical instrument on the scene. The Hang was invented in 2000 by a couple of engineers. Despite it’s newness, it creates sounds that hearken to much older times. Hang player Ben Dieterle joined us to play the Hang and shared a lot of fascinating information about it.
Ben will be performing at Poplar Street Pub in Salt Lake City on Saturday, 23 Aug at 4pm. 242 South 200 West.
