Didgeridoo
The didgeridoo (sometimes didjeridu) is an AustralianAboriginal wind musical instrument.
How is the didgeridoo played
They were used by the Yolgnu people of Arnhem Land. They can be quite long, anywhere from 1 to 3 m (3 to 10 ft) long. Most are around 1.2 m (4 ft) long. The longer the instrument, the lower the pitch or key of the instrument.
They are a hollow wooden tube, which can be either cylindrical or conical in shape. It is best described as being a wooden trumpet or drone. Musicologists say it is a brassaerophone.[1]
It is difficult to know when didgeridoos were first used.
Studies of rock art in Arnhem Land show that it has been in use for more than 1,500 years.
