Frequently asked questions

Read our frequently asked questions. Get in touch if you can't find your question!

    • How long does 1 lesson last in the course?

      Most lessons last 2 to 3 minutes on average and can be played indefinitely. So you can take didgeridoo lesson(s) at any time of the day!

    • No sound comes out of my didgeridoo, is my didgeridoo broken?

      If you can't blow the basic note on your didgeridoo it may indicate a leak, crack or hole in your didgeridoo. However, you can easily repair your didgeridoo with beeswax. If you find a crack or hole near the mouthpiece, it will be difficult to get any sound out of your didgeridoo. A crack or hole at the end or bell of the didgeridoo will have little or no effect on the didgeridoo sound. The solution is to plug the leak which you can do very simply with beeswax. The advantage of beeswax is that it moves with the contraction and expansion of the didgeridoo's wood. Moreover, Australian aborigines also repair their didgeridoos in this traditional way

    • Where can I buy a beginner didgeridoo and the course?

    • 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.

    • What does circular breathing mean?

      Circular breathing is a breathing technique that allows you to breathe out CONTINUOUSLY while breathing in through your nose. With the didgeridoo, this continuous exhalation can be made audible. There is a constant exhalation making an infinite tone. With proper mastery, a long uninterrupted tone can easily be played for 15 minutes!

    • Does a beeswax mouthpiece always have to be put on a didgeridoo?

      It is not always necessary to put a beeswax mouthpiece on a didgeridoo. Sometimes the wooden mouthpiece on the didgeridoo is already in good shape and does not need to be changed. If the mouthpiece is too big, you can use beeswax to make the wooden mouthpiece smaller by modelling a mouthpiece on it. This is very easy to do yourself and done in 10 minutes. If the mouthpiece has a rough surface, a bit of beeswax on the mouthpiece can also help.

    • A didgeridoo, what is it made of?

      The didjeridu, also spelled didgeridu, didge, titjeridoe or didjeridoo is a musical instrument originally made from a hollow tree branch of eucalyptus wood and have an average length of 120cm – 180cm

    • What is a didgeridoo?

      The original Australian didgeridoo is a tree trunk or branch hollowed out by termites, which when blown on produces a low buzzing tone. Nowadays, didgeridoos are not just from Australia but are produced worldwide. You have didgeridoos made of bamboo, PVC, metal, fibreglass which also sound very good and are easy to play. Moreover, with a bamboo didgeridoo you also have an inexpensive didgeridoo on which you can start making your first didgeridook sounds.
