From the blog about this handpan playing instrument:

Meet Sam Maher, a musician, writer and traveller from our home town of Perth, Western Australia who’s just travelled the length and breadth of Central and South America with his girlfriend. And he hauled this unique handpan playing instrument around, as well as a backpack, for entire adventure.

The object he’s holding is most commonly called a handpan playing instrument. This fascinating shape is one of the newest instruments being played in the world today.

The handpan playing instrument is an evolution of the Hang, an idiophone style instrument created by Felix Rohner and Sabina Schärer in Switzerland through their company PANArt Hangbau AG. Each one is unique and highly sought after.
