[Didjeridu] appreciation

[Christian Som]

Hi Karl

DA could stand for Darryl Andersson, an Australian bloke who was big in the
trade a couple of years ago and now has started to make instruments again.

Cheers from another longtimer (9 years or so) and lurker.

Christian

I LOVED your video, Per!! It struck me as kinda funny... that your (big and
low pitched) didges seemed to most emulate the (tiny) hummingbird's wings
and flight. Lush and lyrical. I have always been a fan of LogRhythm's. I
love your work.

Speaking of blast of the past: I'm using Ed Drury's 1994 didge booklet as my
main teaching text for a few students (shout out to Ed! Hey, Ed, you still
out there?).

One student, a 12 year old kid, tells me he's been listening a lot to this
one Aboriginal player named Jeremy Donovan. LOL! It may be a small world,
but the didge world is even smaller!

Here's a question for the group: a friend has lent me a (what looks like
bloodwood) didge he picked up in Oz. The initials on the inside of the bell
are:
DA 27. Does that mean anything to anyone? Huge bell... maybe close to 5
feet, key of G.

JT 2009.... remains a personal priority for me. :).
