Pretty amazing sound, she's got the circular breathing down...she also seems to have picked an environment to enhance the didj sound and positioned herself well to get just the right reverb...
This is Katarina Jiva Vare, well-known talented tribal dancer, choreographer and performer, originally from Russia, now living in Goa, India and traveling the world. "A true dance is born when Body, Consciousness and Energy are in harmony and grow as One. The body is the form that we suppose to fill, to give it meanning and content. And then the prossess of inner growth starts, neverending prossess full of joy and beauty. You give life to the dance and your life turns into the dance itself with no-limit opportunities."
masha499 I've been trying find a version of her playing this without the noise of the people talking in the background. Do you know of any other videos where she is performing this same thing?
This performance is one of the most authentic I ever saw or heard. Everytime I play this short video (and another one I have) I am impressed beyond words. The girl has some strange in her, but oh, so much free spirit that she has and is transmitting so strong. She has definitely become one of my inspirers. Does anybody know anymore about this girl?
She's beautiful no doubt, but she's showing great technique, although the sound may not be pleasant for the everyman ears. The amount of air needed to play winds is huge and without the appropriate technique like circular breathing you can easily pass out in a few seconds.
Wait, there are people who don't like the sound? But it's so beautiful! Even when masterly played very few instruments can reach that far into the deepest part of my soul as the didgeridoo does. And that's not even my kind of music, normally I'm more into rock and metal...
@@confusioneternelle Rock and metal ventures you constantly into the underworld and it grips you there for a while. You play chess with your own shadows and they repay you for that. Didgeridoo does the same but in different manner. It feeds you with archetypes. You might experience thoughts in images without knowing what to do about them, but you know what you experience has meaning. Is fulfilling. And you come back. As you come back to rock and metal to find the sweet spot again and just taste a drop of it. Is a staggering experience. It stuns you with its simple beauty creating this complex internal reaction. Some people perceive didgeridoo sounds as out of ordinary due to our disconnection regarding nature, wild animals, initiation, stories, even if its frequency imitates the womb life before birth, the heart beat at mother's chest, the deep, manly voice of the father in the house when we were little. Didgeridoo touches into our deep psyche. It's a primal sound. It vibrates mostly on low frequencies, which is the frequency of earth, caves, sobbing, longing, war, death, pain, past, memories. It sends you into another state of mind. And it's peaceful there. Your breathing slows down a bit and it deepens. You enjoy the present and the state of being present. I exist.
Well, maybe she plays well but Didgeridoo is still not the kind of instrument everyone likes. It’s also very easy to play it without any serious training like other instruments. Maybe that’s why it is difficult to appreciate it at the same level as someone who plays violin or guitar.
@@aleicabrady6945 I agree with you, I was just gifted a didgeridoo and I thought it would be fairly easy to play as it looks easy but it really isn't easy. That being said I am really enjoying how to play, I got it yesterday and I have finally found my drone this morning. I have seen lessons saying that one needs to practice for at least an hour or more a day, having a lot of fun learning another new instrument!
As an Australian, I can tell you that there was never an Aboriginal nation that decreed women cannot play the didgeridoo. Traditionally only men played, and elders may encourage men more but female didgeridooists are as old as the instrument. The discouragement of women playing is a recent phenomenon.
I've read over some of the comments made on this page, mostly people are very impressed with this young womans ability, as they should be. Does anyone understand the lung power this young woman exhibited from a sitting position in order to play this ancient instrument? And she did it very proficiently I believe, although I'm not an expert by any means whatsoever! Those of you critisizing, get out there and show us all how it should be done better or keep your opinions to yourselves! Great job!!
Traditional didgeridoo's are not made, they are found, aborigenes find trees that have been hollowed out by termites and harvest its straight part, after removing the bark of the tree and cleaning the excrement and dirt left by the termits, and then the musician may ask an artist to decorate it :)
THATS RIGHT THE RIGHTS OF WOMEN TODAY ARE MORE IMPORTANT THAN THOUSANDS OF YEARS OF CUTURE AND TRADITION...CLASSIC NEW AGE NARRISITIC BEHAVIOUR!! 😂😂😂THANKS!!
Awesome back ground information, thank you. I'm still very highly impressed that anyone can do this! What you described about the circular breathing sounds incredibly difficult, I don't care who you are! I think it's totally awesome that you know how to do it as well!
Very impressive. I should note that a traditional Australian didgeridoo is not flared on the end like this one, and are made completely of wood with no metal sections. Perhaps this girl had been to Australia and heard the sound of a traditional didgerioo being played.
I am an Aboriginal woman also and there are alot of comments saying this is disrespectful to our culture. Well, as we see it disrespectful in so many ways in many countries women are allowed to play didges because they are made in their own country and dont have the traditional past and dreamtime stories as we do.. pretty pathetic i know.. they also have called this "instrument" another name.. as an Indigenous woman i would never play or touch a digeridoo because thats how ive been taught [-3-]
I don't care for the looks, I think we're all here because this person plays the Didgeridoo like a fucking boss and shouldnt be on the street begging for money playing it, she should sit on a chair in a orchestra with people paying to be able to listen to her perfection.
Ruben Victoriano but if he elders (Aboriginal elders) found out they would be fuming with anger because it is a mans instrument and it has been that for thousands of years
Niamh 5sos blog.didgeridoobreath.com/info-education/i-heard-that-women-werent-allowed-to-play-didgeridoo/ Apparently not, or at best. only in some tribes. See the reference above. There are many myths about what men and women can or can't do, but most are based on ignorance and superstition. The men of the Berlin Philharmonic orchestra did not want a woman violinist in "their " orchestra, but the conductor, Herbert von Karajan, threatened to resign, so Ann Sophie Mutter was allowed in - check out how good she is.
She doesn't seem to be begging at all. She's busking which is an entirely valid way to earn a living. Alot of musicians do it on top of doing much higher profile gigs which Im sure she does as well.
wow if you are not instantly in love with this girl, there is something seriously wrong with you listening to that great sound, I could not take my eyes off her stomach, trying to figure out how she controlled her breathing and just being in wonder of how lovely she is.
She did a great job. Yes circular breathing is not lung power and once learned is very fun and healing. In many cultures women are not allowed to do much, including playing this instrument. I for one, am glad women step forth and do things we are "not supposed" to do. We have every right to sacred things. If we feel a calling we are just as entitled. As to the sexual commentaries, well, that just goes to show, some people never quite do evolve. Thanks for posting.
I didn't care too much for the performance, or her costume (then again I have heard a lot of didgeridoo playing (by both men and women)), but I admire her courage to play in public even if it didn't wow me. I am sad to learn that it is disrespectful for women to play yidaki /aka didgeridoo/ traditionally, and I agree if the purpose is for the sole purpose of financial gain. I have been playing off and on, at home, for my own enjoyment and healing for over 10 years, and have only had good intentions in doing so. I believe in helping the people of the world work together to better understand each other, and ultimately, take better care of the Earth. Sharing knowledge, history, scientific discoveries, and especially music, is the key to achieving worldwide happiness and ensuring survival, advancement, and thriving. I am not ashamed to play my didgeridoos, but I am saddened to learn aboriginal Australian peoples are against it.
It's a 20,000 year old culture however this young lady is not playing a didgeridoo.or yidaki, depending on the region, a didge is naturally hollowed by termites gum tree trunk. this is not
I know that, what are you trying to say? Please offer me a term to use for a "didgeridoo" that has not been hollowed out by termites? But instead by humans and a chisel? Please give me a term so I may consider using it. Thanks
Nicely said my friend, nicely said !I've been playing and teaching Didgeridoo for around 15yrs and like you, I've only ever had the best of intentions. Music has brought so much joy into my life and others. I've seen men AND women's faces light up when they finally discover an instrument they can play and express themselves through, so surely that can only be a good thing !! Good intention, Love and peace is the key I think :O)
How about a wooden Tube :O) Mind you, they've been made from all manner of materials now. Glass, bamboo, plastic, Pyrex, clay, crystal, fibreglass, brass, Hemp, even Ice !Praps they should be called Didgeri-don'ts or just plain ol "Tube"
I play on 3, one glass, one wood, one plastic. It is inevitable that everything everyone does is going to offend or upset someone else for some reason or another, especially with the online world and anonymity that gives people a sense of immortality, haha. thanks for the kid words, rare things in the world these days!
(continued) She did a great job.I will ignore the crass sexual comments,such is the nature of the internet.I have played didjeridu for 16 years,and spent time in Australia.Only the traditional sacred songs are women not allowed to play.Typically,aborigional Australians who think otherwise come from regions where the didj did not origionate.A controversial opinion,but it really is a mentality of Aborigional people from non-Yidaki/Mago regions,who feel a need to defend what they think is truth.
In England, a few hundred years ago it was taboo for women to be actors. Women roles were played by men or boys. If the same held true for present day we would be watching George Clooney making out with Brad Pitt playing Jennifer Anniston.
My father also plays it, even if we are french but from brittany. He only plays it at home with these musician friends or alone, because he likes music a lots and he's addict to it
Rachel Krueger try breathing in , whilst spitting out water, in the shower, once you get it you will see your brain made it way harder than it actually is good luck
Well, all the arguments about chicks playing the didj are just invented bullpucky. Even the Aussie natives admit the instrument was brought to them some 40K years ago from Tibet. So just bugger off.
Why does the title is "Beauty" ? Does it make a difference about her skills ? If she was a man you would have said : "Man playing didgeridoo". Every time a woman is making a performance (guitar or else) people are talking about her look...
Was watching some water drumming and spotted this little video... something caught my eye...someone more like....the beauty in question is Russian...she lives part of the year in India...and married a french guy...and does a combination of body popping and belly dancing....as well as a multitude of other amazing dances from all over....not quite 'tolerance' accross continents..but its at least its a start!
Dude, that was awesome! Never heard anything quite like that before. And yes, her looks make the scene complete. I want to go sit and watch her play for an hour. Or even lie down and just listen to that.
Listening the music feels me like i was chasing by an animal in a big jungle, i run during the whole night. I survived at the end, while the morning comes; the song of birds were there. But then i knew that i was all alone in the jungle.
I am aboriginal from Queensland...we follow protocol...the didge is an instrument where the music is used in ceremony, is a gift to women....(it is also a phallic symbol)...show me an aboriginal woman who plays a didge...and I will show you a woman without lore. Some people see a nuns garment as holy...or clean...throw on some suspenders and a mini skirt on ....and some would say that is disrespectful and a sacrilege....up to those who know whats right and whats wrong.
I'm a Koori (Aboriginal) woman from NSW, we are forbidden to play the didgeridoo because (my dreaming, where i was raised) believes that the Didge is used to communicate with the spirits, and women have no right to do so. Gender roles are as important as respecting our Elders, our kinship, and our connection to land. Women are cursed if they play the didgeridoo, that is as clear to me as the dooligalars that live in the dark places, and the Gunge that comes to kill you if you whistle at night. Equal rights are important in White societies, but respecting what little culture we have left is all the Indigenous communities have.
Thank you for explaining... I didn't grow up learning my (Wurundjeri) heritage, traditions or customs, I was one of the stolen Gen's, raised in a white christian home.... lucky me [sarcasm]
No problem, and I'm so sorry to hear that. Both of my parents are Aboriginal, (Mother is Yuin, Father is Bundjalung) and I know very little of my culture. What little I have, i will always cherish, and pass on to nieces, nephews, my children, and anyone that is willing to listen, and try to understand. It saddens me that people don't respect our culture, and that Australia has used it primarily to attract tourism, and only respects it in the context of making money.
TheSeonalee i think we should promote whatever it is that's good within a certain culture. No ONE culture has it all. like reading books, listening to music -- expanding ones horizont. every culture has something meaningful to give, but also has things, that take away from ourselves...things that hold back our higher spirit. no women should be cursed for making music. anywhere. there are good things in progressive cultures as there are in conservative ones. never is there a straight line of progress. we're in a circle. surely the "culture" of consumerism is appaling. But holding too tight some very old beliefs sometimes also isn't good. But yeah, it's hard for humanity to find a good ballance. Passing on, what has true value, not what has been imposed. What makes as all better people. Just my opinion though.
I love how people from outside the Aboriginal culture are chucking their 5 cents in like it means something. Women are not allowed to play the didgeridoo in that culture just as women aren't allowed to perform the Haka. It's not sexiest and there are many reasons why we can't. Our men bring a spirit and power that protects their families, a woman brings nurture and love to their families. We understand our culture, our traditions, our guildlines and we understand the different aspects we provide to the family. We are allowed to keep our culture thriving in today's time and we are damned allowed to feel anger if we see outsiders pushing those limits. Let us keep some things sacred for ourselves!
Cherish Housesix You are allowed to feel anger. We are allowed to disregard it. No one can obey everyone else's social norms. Your beliefs WILL be disregarded by others and you will disregard others beliefs. It's impossible not to. Just try to be kind and respectful as you see fit.
All the half caste ones are chucking their 5 cents in too I see. Pity they aren't chucking them at a talented woman playing a musical instrument instead of being resentful, jealous bitches. Just my 5 cents worth.
I think u should respect the culture the instrument comes from. If they do not want women to play it no matter whatever the reason then u should not. It's basic courtesy. U took something out of someone's culture then at least respect the context behind it. It's attached to their sentiments, a piece of faith, spirituality and culture the least you can do it respect the feelings of those people. It's basic courtesy.
if she's not aboriginal she has no obligation to follow sexist protocol of those people. anybody can play any instrument they want as long as they mean no harm by doing so.
*I'm a girl and naturally, I doesn't want to play it. I'm French and originally from Brittany, my father has and plays it but not in front of anyone like the videos. Only I, my mother and his musician friends seen him play it*
Austin doesn't know he is talking about, because he is not Aboriginal.!! For everyone out there, and this girl!! I am a Aboriginal cultural adviser and Aboriginal, it is not for women whatever culture to play it is a mans ancient instrument, always has been used for ceremony.. People have no idea what they are talking about, and do not respect culture... :/
Wulfas It's not being sexist it's the culture and women in Australia aboriginal or not respect that it is only for men to play. It's from the ancient dream time stories. We have adapted here in Australia, we respect our native land owners and treat Aboriginals with respect, we understand that it is only for men to play. If this was shown to a Aboriginal elder they would be extremely angry. Its not being sexist, this is a tradition for Aboriginal people and it is thousands and thousands of years old.
no it isnt, its perfectly fine for women to play the yidaki (traditional name for the digeridoo) but its said in the culture that they will become infertile which is by the basic laws of biology, bull shit. some parts of some cultures should just be thrown out like how in some places culture makes homophobia common place
Haha,funny comment! I think it's safe to say she is not Indian,but simply a lover of world culture. I know in my country,we could use a few more like her!
i love the didgeridoo, but much like bagpipes (which i also love) after about 4 minutes you have heard just about all it can do. it's a drone instrument. great for meditation
Pretty cool! OAN: when you panned to show the building it made me realize just how accurate the video game "Assassin's creed" really was with it's architecture. I immediately recognized that building.
very talented awsome well done and it would be unfair to you to not comment on your beauty you are a avery attractive young woman and you play the didjeridoo extreemly well very talented ignore the small minded comments
Pretty amazing sound, she's got the circular breathing down...she also seems to have picked an environment to enhance the didj sound and positioned herself well to get just the right reverb...

Thanks a lot for the info! I love her.
there is another video of the same day but a few talking kids around still.
She looks like swindler. Is this performance - simulacrum?
You need such a strong breathing capacity for this instrument, amazing
that's a good spot to play because of the acoustic reverberation off the building.
I saw her in Paris nearby Centre Pompidou. Incredible performance!!
She deserved more applause, in my humble opinion. :)
Beautiful! Both the woman and her playing.
She looks so at ease. This is lovely. :)
not the best for the ears? I think it sounds amazing
More interested in the sound than her appearance. The acoustics are amazing.
This performance is one of the most authentic I ever saw or heard. Everytime I play this short video (and another one I have) I am impressed beyond words.

She's beautiful no doubt, but she's showing great technique, although the sound may not be pleasant for the everyman ears. The amount of air needed to play winds is huge and without the appropriate technique like circular breathing you can easily pass out in a few seconds.
The fact she can use the didge without breath's interruption is a proof she using circular breathing isnt it ?
Correct.
Wait, there are people who don't like the sound? But it's so beautiful! Even when masterly played very few instruments can reach that far into the deepest part of my soul as the didgeridoo does. And that's not even my kind of music, normally I'm more into rock and metal...

What do you think got it started?
I believe the correct term is "John sucks."
+Austin Pond maybe but thats what we europeans think about down under!
I'm ready to battle for gods now.

Exactly. If women can't play the instrument, men can't dance
such a lovely lady with an amazing talent. She's too pretty and talented to play in the streets for little money.
She probably loves the freedom though
But I agree
I have seen this video dozens of times... Every time gets better. Cheers from Colorado
Ok so this now has 1.2 million views, has this goddess been located yet?
After reading a lot of bullshit, finally I found COMMON SENSE. Thank's guy!
maskedman72 Yes, Has this performer ever been identified?
Thanks man, my exact question!
she is indeed a goddess holy crap she is hot
Beautiful playing! I love listening to women play the didge! Absolutely nothing wrong with beautiful music ❤
She looks good and play good
That is a travel Didgeridoo. Wish I had one like that. Where can I get one?
You can get a pretty sick didge from Amazon mate
Not the best for the ears? It was amazing! She is amazingI Beautiful video.
All jokes aside, this woman is an amazing musician.
That is so beautiful. Thank you for playing it beautiful lady and thank you for recording it and uploading it beautiful other person.
That is Mozart's third movement in d minor.

In England, a few hundred years ago it was taboo for women to be actors. Women roles were played by men or boys. If the same held true for present day we would be watching George Clooney making out with Brad Pitt playing Jennifer Anniston.
:D well said! and true!
Oh j'étais là quand elle a joué! très douée on a été nombreux à vibrer!
This is the first video I've seen of a female didge player. She's awesome!
No. Its culturally disrespectful to us aboriginals.
@@jaredmk4897 Please explain why it is disrespectful.
It is taboo for females to play the didgeridoo as it curses you and listeners and will make your bloodline infertile eventually
Awesome. Wish we had a site through which we could chip in with our two bits of financial help. What talent!! May God Bless her, wherever she is.
I gotta maraca you can shake and a didgeridoo you can blow
Lmao!
wauu hermosa y talentosa mis respetos sacerdotisa bendiciones reyna 😘😍😍😍😍😍
what a beautiful women with extremely amazing talent! :D
Love it. That musuc always reminds me of you.
:D Hungarian boy with his father listen to it :D
My father also plays it, even if we are french but from brittany. He only plays it at home with these musician friends or alone, because he likes music a lots and he's addict to it
I need to learn how to circular breath ugh
straw and bubbles
Rachel Krueger try breathing in , whilst spitting out water, in the shower, once you get it you will see your brain made it way harder than it actually is good luck
@@joytotheworld6804 ima need a guide for this breathing technique
Very good
wasn't the didgeridoo supposed to be a ceremony instrument
always was, always will be
For MEN ONLY.
@@turquoiseturtle4938 i mean i see her playing it so obviously women can play it too lol
не могу подобрать слов чтобы описать своё восхищение
Well, all the arguments about chicks playing the didj are just invented bullpucky. Even the Aussie natives admit the instrument was brought to them some 40K years ago from Tibet. So just bugger off.
r o f l. Ye sound more like a drunk, pissed off Samoan.
Well ye be fkn wits now me lad, me lassie, me puppy doggie. Ye gots it all twisted wrong about. Tit tit.
Great

Why does the title is "Beauty" ? Does it make a difference about her skills ? If she was a man you would have said : "Man playing didgeridoo". Every time a woman is making a performance (guitar or else) people are talking about her look...
dda ed She is beautiful. Beauty is different for men and women.
So what, the Guy who titled this is giving her a compliment and you also can't deny that she wasn't wearing those exotic clothes not to look beautiful
Amazing job! Well done!
The reason why us hippies love the didgeridoo is because it's very psychadelic sounding.
Was watching some water drumming and spotted this little video... something caught my eye...someone more like....the beauty in question is Russian...she lives part of the year in India...and married a french guy...and does a combination of body popping and belly dancing....as well as a multitude of other amazing dances from all over....not quite 'tolerance' accross continents..but its at least its a start!

This is in appropriate
Nice belly. And well played.
ಠ_ಠ
Dude, that was awesome! Never heard anything quite like that before. And yes, her looks make the scene complete. I want to go sit and watch her play for an hour. Or even lie down and just listen to that.
I haven't seen any girl as beautiful as this girl,and I'm French...
Really? yay, so if I move to France I might get a BF then....j/k
As if French girls would be mostly beautiful
Listening the music feels me like i was chasing by an animal in a big jungle, i run during the whole night. I survived at the end, while the morning comes; the song of birds were there. But then i knew that i was all alone in the jungle.
I am aboriginal from Queensland...we follow protocol...the didge is an instrument where the music is used in ceremony, is a gift to women....(it is also a phallic symbol)...show me an aboriginal woman who plays a didge...and I will show you a woman without lore. Some people see a nuns garment as holy...or clean...throw on some suspenders and a mini skirt on ....and some would say that is disrespectful and a sacrilege....up to those who know whats right and whats wrong.
I'm a Koori (Aboriginal) woman from NSW, we are forbidden to play the didgeridoo because (my dreaming, where i was raised) believes that the Didge is used to communicate with the spirits, and women have no right to do so. Gender roles are as important as respecting our Elders, our kinship, and our connection to land. Women are cursed if they play the didgeridoo, that is as clear to me as the dooligalars that live in the dark places, and the Gunge that comes to kill you if you whistle at night.
Equal rights are important in White societies, but respecting what little culture we have left is all the Indigenous communities have.
Thank you for explaining... I didn't grow up learning my (Wurundjeri) heritage, traditions or customs, I was one of the stolen Gen's, raised in a white christian home.... lucky me [sarcasm]
No problem, and I'm so sorry to hear that. Both of my parents are Aboriginal, (Mother is Yuin, Father is Bundjalung) and I know very little of my culture. What little I have, i will always cherish, and pass on to nieces, nephews, my children, and anyone that is willing to listen, and try to understand. It saddens me that people don't respect our culture, and that Australia has used it primarily to attract tourism, and only respects it in the context of making money.

i think we should promote whatever it is that's good within a certain culture. No ONE culture has it all. like reading books, listening to music -- expanding ones horizont. every culture has something meaningful to give, but also has things, that take away from ourselves...things that hold back our higher spirit. no women should be cursed for making music. anywhere. there are good things in progressive cultures as there are in conservative ones. never is there a straight line of progress. we're in a circle. surely the "culture" of consumerism is appaling. But holding too tight some very old beliefs sometimes also isn't good. But yeah, it's hard for humanity to find a good ballance.
Passing on, what has true value, not what has been imposed. What makes as all better people.
Just my opinion though.
+zernestro but that's our culture and we're good with it
Exquisite and moving. Look beyond race and color and see that music and love are shared.
I love how people from outside the Aboriginal culture are chucking their 5 cents in like it means something. Women are not allowed to play the didgeridoo in that culture just as women aren't allowed to perform the Haka. It's not sexiest and there are many reasons why we can't. Our men bring a spirit and power that protects their families, a woman brings nurture and love to their families. We understand our culture, our traditions, our guildlines and we understand the different aspects we provide to the family.
We are allowed to keep our culture thriving in today's time and we are damned allowed to feel anger if we see outsiders pushing those limits. Let us keep some things sacred for ourselves!
Cherish Housesix You are allowed to feel anger. We are allowed to disregard it. No one can obey everyone else's social norms. Your beliefs WILL be disregarded by others and you will disregard others beliefs. It's impossible not to. Just try to be kind and respectful as you see fit.

All the half caste ones are chucking their 5 cents in too I see. Pity they aren't chucking them at a talented woman playing a musical instrument instead of being resentful, jealous bitches. Just my 5 cents worth.
Yes, plus she's performing in France, she's not in Australia pretending to know things better than aborigenes.
nah lol it's sexist. point blank.
Well-played and I love the location. Put some extra good vibes in that cathedral!
I think u should respect the culture the instrument comes from. If they do not want women to play it no matter whatever the reason then u should not. It's basic courtesy. U took something out of someone's culture then at least respect the context behind it. It's attached to their sentiments, a piece of faith, spirituality and culture the least you can do it respect the feelings of those people. It's basic courtesy.
if she's not aboriginal she has no obligation to follow sexist protocol of those people. anybody can play any instrument they want as long as they mean no harm by doing so.
That awkward moment when people don't know if they should clap...
OMG that's disgusting, what is going on here?
What is?
@@SaturnsGoat9 women aren't allowed to play it.
Her name is Katerina Jiva Vare, she is a dancer.you can find amazing videos of her dancing on you tube and Facebook too:)
How do people not know that it’s very disrespectful for women to play the didgeridoo
Good. Fuck tradition
*I'm a girl and naturally, I doesn't want to play it. I'm French and originally from Brittany, my father has and plays it but not in front of anyone like the videos. Only I, my mother and his musician friends seen him play it*
She's so beautiful and talented!
Austin doesn't know he is talking about, because he is not Aboriginal.!! For everyone out there, and this girl!! I am a Aboriginal cultural adviser and Aboriginal, it is not for women whatever culture to play it is a mans ancient instrument, always has been used for ceremony.. People have no idea what they are talking about, and do not respect culture... :/
+John Smith Gumbula I know hey people saying its a myth no. My elders always taught me not to play it and if I did the myth was I could get pregnant.
Luckiily she's not playing a didgeridoo
+John Smith Gumbula /sarcasm yeah what a shame people don't respect out dated prejudice culture anymore
+Joey “Crysiɀ” Pereira rekt
Wulfas It's not being sexist it's the culture and women in Australia aboriginal or not respect that it is only for men to play. It's from the ancient dream time stories. We have adapted here in Australia, we respect our native land owners and treat Aboriginals with respect, we understand that it is only for men to play. If this was shown to a Aboriginal elder they would be extremely angry. Its not being sexist, this is a tradition for Aboriginal people and it is thousands and thousands of years old.
Very, very fascinating - acustic synthesizer 🎵
Women are never meant to play the didgeridoo as it is bad luck and very disrespectful!! Shame
no it isnt, its perfectly fine for women to play the yidaki (traditional name for the digeridoo) but its said in the culture that they will become infertile which is by the basic laws of biology, bull shit. some parts of some cultures should just be thrown out like how in some places culture makes homophobia common place
Her calls are really good. Wish I could’ve been there, those acoustics must’ve been something to feel I bet
Haha,funny comment! I think it's safe to say she is not Indian,but simply a lover of world culture. I know in my country,we could use a few more like her!
I don't know ... but waaawwww great to hear ... nice work girl greetings 🇧🇪
Great comment...I personally don't care if there is any tradition here. It sounds badass, especially from :43 on
she couldn't have picked a more beautiful place to play her didgeridoo. Carcassone, "the fortified city" is marvelous and has an amazing history.
i love the didgeridoo, but much like bagpipes (which i also love) after about 4 minutes you have heard just about all it can do. it's a drone instrument. great for meditation
This was awesome.
thank you. very very beautiful.
Pretty cool! OAN: when you panned to show the building it made me realize just how accurate the video game "Assassin's creed" really was with it's architecture. I immediately recognized that building.
very talented awsome well done and it would be unfair to you to not comment on your beauty you are a avery attractive young woman and you play the didjeridoo extreemly well very talented ignore the small minded comments
she's really a good player, kudos to her. :-)
