Do didgeridoos have multiple tones?
Each didgeridoo has its own basic tone. This unique tone provides the basic tone and resonance that, in addition to the shape of the didgeridoo, is a major part of the sound. The most commonly used and loved keys are those between a C and an E tone. Our team at Australian Treasures are happy to advise you on choosing the right didgeridoo. Send an email to info@australiantreasures.com
What should you look for when buying a didgeridoo online?
The main things to look for when buying a didgeridoo are that it has a minimum length of 120cm, a mouthpiece about 3cm in diameter. A didgeridoo doesn't have to be expensive. A bamboo, teak, pvc or mahogany didgeridoo is a good didgeridoo to start with.
Can the didgeridoo cure sleep apnea?
Research has shown that playing the didgeridoo helps treat mild to moderate cases of sleep apnea. Both sleep apnea patients and their partners became less sleepy during the day and had less sleep disturbances at night.

Do I need to buy a didgeridoo for the online workshop?
If you already own a didgeridoo you do not need to buy one. Sometimes your own didgeridoo may not blow properly because of a bad or old mouthpiece or the didgeridoo may be faulty without you noticing. Then blowing a note won't work either. For a relatively low fee, you can buy a whole new didgeridoo from the online course with a special package discount and be sure to blow a good didgeridoo!
Which didgeridoo tone should I purchase?
The best keys to start with are a low note between a C and an E note. A bamboo didgeridoo is highly recommended because of a nice low deep tone that is usually tuned to the key of D due to its length (120cm).
What is a didjeridu?
An Australian Aboriginal wind instrument in the form of a long wooden tube, traditionally made from a hollow branch, which is blown to produce a deep, resonant sound, varied by rhythmic accents of timbre and volume.
-
How is the didgeridoo played?
On the didgeridoo you blow on a mouthpiece with an opening of about 3 cm diameter. Putting your mouth against the mouthpiece and vibrating your lips produces the didgeridoo's basic tone.
I am short of breath, can I play didgeridoo?
For people who are short of breath, circular breathing and playing the didgeridoo can actually help.
Can anyone learn to play didgeridoo?
Yes, didgeridoo playing is suitable for anyone to learn. We have been giving didgeridoo workshops to the education sector for many years and even pre-school and primary school children can get a sound out of it.
What did others think?
Our workshops have helped many people with
circular breathing and have been able to reduce snoring as a result.

Participated in one of the workshops. Was a great experience!
Willy Veld (participant in one-day workshop) -
Practising outside in the garden, I suddenly had an audience of 2 little birds, they didn't stay long, circular blowing through a straw is going great and it's already going smoother and better through the didgeridoo. Thanks Niels, your workshop provides a simple, effective approach that works very well and it feels healthy, didgeridoo playing.
Greetings, Heleen (participant of the one-day workshop)

Wow - 2 weeks on and I just blew a minute-long session for the first time. Sound during inhalation and exhalation is not the same yet, but I was able to smooth that out nicely in the rhythm. So the circular breathing is coming along nicely!

Nice didges. Got four, two from other sellers and two from Australian Treasures. It's a heavy piece of wood (the one on the far left is from Australian Treasures, new. The second from the right also. The one one the far right is bamboo. The two on the left eucalyptus and the one with the colouring.. I am not sure, but it's quite light)
Pieter Rodgers -
Everything perfect. the product respond to the description, shipping is monitored from the start to the end, packaging is also good... 5 stars deserved.

Playing didgeridoo makes you fit! I am very tired after a day's work. But after practising on the didgeridoo, I have energy again! What a great instrument this is. I never thought blowing on a didgeridoo would take so little effort. Super happy.
