make your own didgeridoo workshop. A popular venue. Woodfordia.
Woodford Folk Festival 2017. The festival runs annually for 6 days and 6 nights from Christmas till after New Years. It is located in a very rural area about 100km north west of Brisbane. This year it is the 31st time the event has been held. They annually tend to get about 130.000 visitors. Most of them camping on site. There are about 438 events held in 35 performance venues. About 2000 performers take part. Lots of national and international acts. As it is the hottest (and usually the wettest) time of the year it is quite a feat. Accommodation is simple. Electricity only at central points. Wifi sketchy. So it is just sweat, mud and fun. (and very little sleep). Lots of street performers also roam the 'streets'. Lots of workshops, lots of yoga. obviously. And so on. A good way to see in the new year

The didgeridoo (/ˌdɪdʒəriˈduː/; also known as a didjeridu) is a wind instrument developed by Indigenous Australians of northern Australia potentially within the last 1,500 years and still in widespread use today both in Australia and around the world. It is sometimes described as a natural wooden trumpet or "drone pipe". Musicologists classify it as a brass aerophone.
There are no reliable sources stating the didgeridoo's exact age. Archaeological studies of rock art in Northern Australia suggest that the people of the Kakadu region of the Northern Territory have been using the didgeridoo for less than 1,000 years, based on the dating of paintings on cave walls and shelters from this period. A clear rock painting in Ginga Wardelirrhmeng, on the northern edge of the Arnhem Land plateau, from the freshwater period (that had begun 1500 years ago) shows a didgeridoo player and two songmen participating in an Ubarr Ceremony.
A modern didgeridoo is usually cylindrical or conical, and can measure anywhere from 1 to 3 m (3 to 10 ft) long. Most are around 1.2 m (4 ft) long. Generally, the longer the instrument, the lower its pitch or key. However, flared instruments play a higher pitch than unflared instruments of the same length.(Wikipedia)

Down to Caves Beach this morning, where I was greeted by fantastic music when I arrived. This guy was playing an unusual instrument, which I found out is a handpan drum , seen near his knees, which sounded something like pan flutes, which sounded beautiful, when I first arrived and then swapped to the didgeridoo, which sounded amazing. The didgeridoo is an Australian aboriginal instrument, which they make from hollow tree branches and trunks. Outside the Grand Cave , the sunrise is waiting.

Saturday night down at Disney Springs in Orlando, we came across several performers entertaining the crowds. This gentleman here, Dominic Gaudious, was my favorite playing both his harp guitar and didgeridoo. He played some original tunes of his own which were wonderful and an arrangement of familiar songs that was pretty awesome too.
Check him out at:
As a side note, portraits of people are outside my comfort zone. While technically I wouldn't call this a portrait mainly because I'm not directing him on how he should pose. That being said, I personally really like this photo and how it turned out.

"This ancient instrument (over 2000 years) is traditionally used for dancing and entertainment, today also used as relaxation therapy and to strengthen the respiratory system of the urban man.
Este instrumento antiguo (de más de 2 mil años) es usado tradicionalmente para la danza y el entretenimiento, hoy día también se usa como terapia de relajación y para reforzar el sistema respiratorio del hombre urbano.
The Mayan Trumpet is called Hom-tah by indigenous and australian aborigines call it Didgeridoo or Yidaki It is a wind instrument wood instrument that is played by vibrating lips to produce a deep and consistent basis sound. Many other frequencies are born playing with breath, cheeks, tongue, lips and voice.
La Trompeta Maya es llamada Hom-tah por los indígenas y en Australia, los aborígenes le llaman Didgeridoo o Yidaki. Es un instrumento aerófono de madera que se toca haciendo vibrar sus labios para producir un profundo y constante sonido base. Muchas otras frecuencias nacen del juego de este soplo con las mejillas, la lengua, los labios y la voz.
This series of trumpets Hom-tah made of Quiote of Maguey, were made with the ancient technique of fire pierced. One red hot coal is used to burn inside a quiote while the outside is kept moist with wet cloths. Thus, the wood is preserved in one piece and inside protects the compacted ashes producing a deep, clear sound. This instrument is part of the countless products derived from maguey that adorn Mexican culture.
Esta serie de trompetas Hom-tah de Quiote de Maguey, fueron fabricadas con la técnica antigua del agujerado al fuego. Se usa una brasa al rojo vivo para incinerar el interior de un quiote mientras el exterior se mantiene húmedo con telas mojadas. Así, la madera es preservada en una sola pieza y en su interior resguarda las cenizas compactadas que producen un sonido profundo y claro. Este instrumento forma parte de la innumerable cantidad de productos derivados del maguey que adornan a la cultura mexicana."

A man playing Didgeridoo at Varanasi.
Didgeridoo (didjeridu) is one of the oldest wind instrument in the world. It was used by Australian Aborigines as their musical instrument and now popular all over the world. The instrument is made from a long wooden tube that is blown into to create a low drone. The instrument creates a unique haunting (vibrating) sound and it can carry for miles.
The didgeridoo is played with continuously vibrating lips to produce the drone while using a special breathing technique called circular breathing. This requires breathing in through the nose whilst simultaneously expelling stored air out of the mouth using the tongue and cheeks. By use of this technique, a skilled player can replenish the air in their lungs, and with practice can sustain a note for as long as desired. One needs really special skills to play this contieously. I could see this man playing for almost 30 miinutes contineously, without even pausing for a breath.
