Cool Street Didgeridoo! Djembe in the Same Time
Didgeridoo:
Didgeridoo also known as a didjeridu,
is a wind instrument developed by Indigenous Australians
of northern Australia around 1,500 years ago.
Traditionally and originally, the didgeridoo was primarily played
as an accompaniment to ceremonial dancing and singing.
However, it was also common for didgeridoos to be played
for solo or recreational purposes outside of ceremonial gatherings.
The didgeridoo is played with continuously vibrating lips
to produce the drone while using a special breathing technique
called circular breathing. This requires breathing in through
the nose whilst simultaneously expelling stored air out of the mouth
using the tongue and cheeks.
A 2005 study in the British Medical Journal found that learning
and practising the didgeridoo helped reduce snoring and
obstructive sleep apnea by strengthening muscles in the
upper airway, thus reducing their tendency to collapse during sleep.
Djembe:
A djembe also spelled djembé, jembe, jenbe,
djimbe, jimbe, or dyinbe.
It is a rope-tuned skin-covered goblet drum played
mostly with bare hands, originally from West Africa.
According to the Bambara people in Mali,
the name of the djembe comes from the saying
"Anke djé, anke bé" which translates to "everyone gather
together in peace" and defines the drum's purpose.
In the Bambara language, "djé" is the verb for "gather"
and "bé" translates as "peace".
The djembe can produce a wide variety of sounds,
making it a most versatile drum. The drum is very loud,
allowing it to be heard clearly as a solo instrument
over a large percussion ensemble.
The Malinké people say that a skilled drummer is one who
"can make the djembe talk", meaning that the player
can tell an emotional story.
Traditionally, the djembe is played only by men,
as are the dunun that always accompany the djembe.
Even today, it is rare to see women play djembe or dunun
in West Africa, and African women express astonishment
when they do see a female djembe player.
