We love exploring the musical landscapes of Indigenous Australia. On here you will find a bunch of short videos focussed on the didgeridoo in various contexts. There is an emphasis on solo demonstrations of mostly virtuoso tunes with a smattering of more structured clan songs. Our aim is to showcase some of the didgeridoo talents, trends and techniques we have come across in the hope of generating a wider appreciation of this exciting musical art form, one that continues to shift, innovate and adapt to broader Australian and international social-musical movements.
Around this core of videos are a medley of offerings ranging from footage of hunting expeditions and bush tucker, ceremonies, concerts, a little bit of comedy Top End style, a scattering of filmed workshops/masterclasses, and stories in Aboriginal languages. In combination, the videos on our channel offer a little glimpse of what life is like through the lens of a didgeridoo.
