Frequently asked questions

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

    • How to breathe circularly?

      Circular breathing is a breathing technique in which a continuous tone can be obtained on a wind instrument. The first step of the technique is that the oral cavity is filled with as much air as possible by inflating the cheeks.

    • In which languages is the online course available?

      The workshop is available in 7 languages: Dutch, English, German, French, Italian, Spanish and Swedish.

    • Can you play didgeridoo with a beard?

      A beard makes it a bit more difficult to play - but it's certainly not impossible. You only get a more visible mark around your lips because you have to press harder to get a good seal.

    • I have hyperventilation, can I play didgeridoo?

      For people who have hyperventilation, are short of breath, have lung problems, suffer from lung covid, circular breathing and playing the didgeridoo can actually help.

    • I am a beginner and want a didgeridoo with a low tone, which one should I choose?

      For beginners who want to buy a cheap didgeridoo with a low tone, we recommend a bamboo didgeridoo. These didgeridoos have a nice, low, deep, round bass tone. Most bamboo didgeridoos have a nice low D note and blow very easily. Compact didgeridoos are also very good!

    • 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.

    • 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!

    • Is the didgeridoo the same as other wind instruments?

      The didgeridoo is different from other wind instruments. -You blow through a large opening and have to give resistance with your mouth/lips. -The didgeridoo has 1 tone, it is not a melody (wind) instrument. -On the didgeridoo you use the circular breathing technique. -The didgeridoo produces many more vibrations than other wind instruments
