Didgeridoos - Clearly Unique
Posted by Claudia Kasen in Music & Music Players, tags: didgeridoo, Music & Music PlayersThere is no mistaking the particular sound of a didgeridoo, the ancient woodwind instrument associated for many years with the aborigines of Australia. They’ve been made and used from times long past and are cherished today as amongst the greatest symbols of aboriginal culture, music and custom. Usually made from the wood of the eucalyptus tree, which has been hollowed out, they’re adorned with colorful inscriptions and pictures, all of which are significant and symbological to those who make and play them. It is claimed that a didgeridoo isn’t authentic unless it has been manufactured by someone that himself has been steeped in this long line of tradition and history and whose ancestors similarly made and used these instruments.
