Sean Rhys Stirling - Chapman Stick

What you see above is the 12 String Grand Chapman Stick™ - a unique, elegant, musical instrument created by Emmett Chapman (Stick Enterprises).  Just tap the strings!  Put your fingertip on the string - you hear the note. Tap lightly and the sound is sweet. Tap harder and it gets percussive. Hit it with everything you've got on the bass strings and it gets quite funky!

I’m just a hard working musician working another reinvention phase.  I had a nice run in the keyboard world and played some wonderful gigs and met some incredible musicians all around the globe.  I moved from Hammond Organ to Moog synthesizer to a Prophet synth and then the ultimate synth:
The Synclavier.  See my biography for a bit of that adventure. 

Now I’m attempting to master that instrument above - the Chapman Stick™.

At the Stick Enterprises site you’ll find a large page of artists websites .

What kind of music do you play on a Stick?  What do you like?
Every style of music works quite nicely on this instrument.
