Didgeridoo Music: Performers and Recommended Recordings

Didgeridoo music is a type of music that is also commonly identified as didge music or didjeridu music. The origin of didgeridoo music can be traced back to Australia to the aborigines located in the northern most region of the country. This form of music is a naturalistic form of music which is sometimes identified as a drone pipe or trumpet, and on occasion, musicians will refer to this type of music as aerophone music.

The didgeridoo instrument is a long length of wood that is often accompanied by unique and attractive designs. More contemporary didgeridoo instruments are conical or cylindrical in their construction and their measurements can be approximately 3 feet in length or more. The length of the didgeridoo is directly proportional to the type of sound waves that are issued forth from the instrument when it is played, and longer instruments provide a lower or deeper pitch than those didgeridoo instruments used that have a shorter length associated with their construction.

There are a number of performers who have made recordings of didgeridoo music and such recordings are suitable for easy listening, relaxation, and meditation purposes. Sometimes the music is unified with the sounds issued forth from a Tibetan singing bowl or with trance inducing sounds of various percussion instruments.
