Summary: That almost mystical sounding music you hear coming from Australia is played by a musical instrument called the didgeridoo. The didgeridoo is made out of a eucalyptus tree that has had the insides eaten by termites. Scales are impossible to play on a didgeridoo, consequently vocalizations and other techniques are used to produce varied sounds out of this incredible instrument. Though it may seem impossible to play a didgeridoo, it really is easier than you think, especially if you have an expert teach you how.

In this free how to video series, learn how to play the didgeridoo from expert James Benedict. James will teach you how to breath when playing the didgeridoo, how to circular breath for long periods of time, and how to maintain proper embouchure. Additionally he will teach you essential didgeridoo playing techniques such as basic articulation, double tongue articulation, basic vocalizations, the flutter tongue technique, and articulation and vocalization combination.
