Hello people of Australia....I have an inquiry
Ok, so I know by writing this I am making it blatantly obvious that I know nothing about Australia,
Someone, please tell me about this fabulous instrument called the “Didgeridoo” I think that’s how it’s spelled
I recently made myself a CD for meditation and I downloaded a music song with mostly just sounds of this wonderful sounding instrument. Please tell me some more about it, I have seen them on TV before, but I never knew the range of sound you can get from it. (how does one make that sound anyway???)
Any fun information would be awesome…this is just another of many reasons why I have to travel to the land down-under!
cheers!

Well, without hitting Google, the thing needs “circular breathing” to be mastered so it can be played properly, and they sort of “talk” sounds into the playing, and can tap on it or scrape it for more sounds on top of the main sound.
Not that I know anything official, but just what it looks like from watching it being played :)

See I was a giant band nerd in high school and therefore I find that fascinating! thanks!
