How to Breath When Playing the Didgeridoo

Hi, I am voice over artist James Benedict on behalf of Expert Village. This video is about learning how to play the Didgeridoo. I would like to share a few secrets with you. Now, that we have learned how to put sound in the Didgeridoo we will talk a little bit about breathing. It is essential to breathe in through your nose and out through the mouth just like your singing or playing a wind instrument. Put your hand on top of your belly, and breath in with your nose, all the way in, as far as you can go and out with the mouth. You get a nice long phrase that way. We will eventually talk about circular breathing, which is breathing in through your nose while you are playing out through your mouth. We will talk about that just a little bit later. Let's give this a try while playing the Didgeridoo ;in through the nose.
