Didgeridoo Basics
Presented with Adam Buxbaum.
Experience the beauty and mystery of the Australian Aboriginal
didgeridoo - at once the most basic and yet most profound of musical
instruments. This workshop will introduce the basic playing techniques - the
drone, mouth sounds, vocals and basic rhythms - and then present an overview
of circular breathing. No prior musical knowledge is necessary. We will have
a few instruments to share. All players - from aspiring to professional -
are welcome.
Didgeridoo 2 - Circular Breathing Intensive
Presented with Adam Buxbaum.
For those who understand the didgeridoo basics, but still need
to learn that all-important "circular breathing." This workshop will
continue the learning process with group exercises and individual
instruction designed to get you to the next level. All players are welcome.
