The Didgeridoo is part of the musical, healing and ceremonial heritage of the aboriginal peoples of Australia. According to an aboriginal legend, the first man wanted to please the sky. He put a hollowed branch to his mouth and began to play. With the force of his breath, the termites living in the hollow branch were expelled from the open end and became the stars.

Traditionally, didgeridoos were made of eucalyptus branches which had been hollowed out naturally by termites. With the increasing popularity of the didgeridoo world-wide, many cutters simply cut all the branches and saplings in an area to find a few hollow ones. Perhaps for this reason, and to supply demand, didgeridoos are now made from a number of natural and synthetic materials.

Playing the Didgeridoo:
Stick your bottom lip out just a little beyond your upper lip. Blow through your loose lips to make the lowest buzz sound that you can. Buzz them as if you were giving someone the ‘raspberry.' To play the didgeridoo, blow into the mouthpiece while creating the same buzzing with your lips. It is important to keep your lips relaxed. Trying too hard usually causes the beginner to tighten their lips - stay loose. Once you have mastered the drone. You can alter the pitch of the drone by slightly tightening your lips. You will know how tight is too tight when the sound stops. You can add rhythm to your drones by altering when you take breaths. The length and thickness of the didgeridoo will determine which key the instrument will be in. The shorter the instrument, the higher the pitch; while the longer the instrument, the lower the pitch.
