I was a school kid at the time and to be honest it captivated me a true tribal earthy sound that I thought only native aboriginal people
could & were allowed to play. As much as I can remember I just wanted to keep listening to this native Aboriginal busker play in the middle
of Melbourne city (think it was Swanston street at the time actually) haha I gave him some money too! He was amazing the tones and sounds he
could get out of this piece of wood, blew my mind. I always have had the urge to get one for myself since then,I wish now I should have learned
to play sooner. |

up on the back of my neck. |

The very first time I heard a didg, I cried of joy ... it was in "Sydney Festival", The Gypsy Festival in January 1997. I used
to work there with a french band, named "Tekameli". We decided to meet Aborigines and try to have some contact with aboriginal people. We
knew some white people who knew some fellahs of the Aboriginal Community in Sydney, in Redfern. and one week later 3 ambassadors of the community
came to visit us. After a moment of questioning we invited them to the place where we had accommodations. And those 3 guys played us a "welcoming
song", and I cried of joy ... Because it was such an experience !!! I remember this day as if it was yesterday, some kind of rebirth,
really... One of those 3 guy was Gary J. Simon, who is Aboriginal, he became my friend and by the way taught me circular breathing and since
that date I didn't stop playing and dreaming my didg'. We've been in Survival Day '97 at La Perouse to listen to other great didjeridoo players,
a lot! Yes believe me it was such a fantastic moment in my life !!! For me the didjeridoo was some kind of revelation, as if it wasn't the
very first time I heard it in fact, an impression of "deja vu", I'm sure you see what I mean... The very strong feeling you have,
when you know something without being able to explain it ... And by the way thank you for you web site it is excellent ;) !!! Thank you soooo
much ! |

Its a beautiful instrument with a great sound, we where in Australia and there I tried to play on a didj. it was very difficult. We had
to leaf the country very quick because my sister had a terrible accident, so I didn't have the time to buy a didj in Australia. Now I'm looking
for to buy this beautiful instrument so I can start to lear to play. |

I play "midwinterhoorn", typical Dutch, region Achterhoek, Twente. Like a didge but another technique. I wonder how a didge
will play..... See www.midwinterhoornblazers.nl. If I can get a didge from you I can make a midwinterhoorn for you, the "Dutch Didge" |

I thought they sounded really neat and looked cool as they were the first ones I had ever seen or heard in person. they have such an ethereal
sound quality that kind of mesmerises any and everybody within range. it's a real soulful sound that kind of de-or un stress's or relaxes you
and makes you very introspective and happy at the sametime. Needless to say I really enjoyed it! |
George Macaulay from United Kingdom |
Really neat sound. I knew I had to get one but only if I had actually been in australia first. I was really excited when I could first
drone and spent ages choosing my first didjeridoo |

I thought it was a great instrument even though I was only very young at the time. I've always wanted one since I saw one on TV, just
think its a great shame I hadn't got one earlier!! |

Its a sound that can move a person in a strange way, very calming. |
John Watson from USA |
Well, my yoga teacher John plays them and he brought his into class so we could feel the vibrations of the sound in our system. He had
a total of 3. I've always liked the sound immensely and a few years back I got into electronic music, noticing how the synth sounds are often
similar to the sounds of the Didj. It felt, amazing, for obvious and easy to understand lack of words. At that moment I knew it was something
I wanted to integrate more fully into my cellular memory :) |

Strange sounding, but it struck my curiosity. |
Justin Linn from USA |
Awesome, beautiful sound. it is very relaxing, one of a kind sound |
Kari Rosenthal from USA |
I thought that it was one of the most exciting things I have ever seen. Instantly I was drawn to the didj. Every time I hear or see one,
I am drawn to it. In school in Boulder Colorado I was able to borrow a friends for a couple weeks, that was the time I became comfortable with
one. I have not been able to own one because I can't afford one, but it is one of my materialistic goals. I can not describe the way I feel
when I hear a didj, because it is indescribable. I believe it to be very powerful. |

La primera vez que tuve en mis manos un didgeridoo sentí que era algo ancestral y sagrado. Me sentía conectado con la escénica
de la tierra y con las otras personas presentes, que tocaban otros instrumentos. Fue un momento mágico, y ya no pude ser ajeno al mundo
del didj. |
