„My vision is for everyone to play musical instruments freely and intuitively to create true connections with themselves, the world, and others.“
Tanjef Gross – music therapist, musical instrument creator and builder, musician
„My mission is to give you musical instruments with which you can carry sounds intuitively and freely into the world.
In improvisational playing, you immerse yourself in your inner freedom and draw on your natural and intuitive playing. You interact with yourself and your surroundings. Free and without limitations. You are sound. Become one with yourself, the elements and the sounding universe around you.“
TĀla
Feel the rhythm
Tāla begins where words end.No practice.
No right or wrong.
Just you – and your pulse.

Tāla – Sound connects.
An impulse.
An echo.
A shared rhythm.
About the WATERPAN
The WATERPAN by fjäril handmade percussion was designed by me and has been continuously developed since 2017. From an idea and countless hours of trial and error, it has now become a handcrafted musical instrument of high and consistent quality. For me, this is a step to send my work out into the world.
The latest version of my water-filled waterpan – fjäril handmade percussion sounds even better thanks to the second ring and doesn’t need an additional stand when played on the floor or table or snare stand. It also sounds free when played by hand.

Client Testimonials
Here is what our clients say:
Glücklich 
über meine neuen Small Percussion Pedale gebaut von Tanjef Gross. In der Entwicklung steckt die Erfahrung und das Herzblut eines großartigen Musikers.
Vielen Dank Tanjef 
I love that the waterpan doesn’t have fixed tonefields, and thus lets you combine rhythm with a delightful limitless swaying movement of the tones, which creates the mystical dreamy sound that makes the waterpan completely unique.

Behind the Craft
A glimpse into my workshop where every musical instrument is handmade
Our Team
A team both privately and professionally for 25 years.
As a married couple and parents, we found our way to self-development and freedom and traveled to Central America two years ago. Sweden has now become our new home. We create spaces for encounters – whether online or offline on our island – by offering coaching, therapeutic support and musical improvisation courses.
New musical instruments and sound sculptures are created in our workshop.
