And just a minor correction- only Djalu Gurruwiwi (a Galpu clan eleder) can make Djalu instruments. He is THE master yirdaki player and craftsmen amongst Yolngu, bar none. Both Yolngu and, in some cases, white fellas who have apprenticed with Djalu(Frank T. and Nathan B., for example) craft yirdaki. Yirdaki is only the name for didjeridu amongst Yolngu, but does mean something both in form and sound.
Best,

I knew that, what I was refering to is that not all aboriginals give you quality such as Djalu would (it was methafor). As I said the didge I played was an original Djalu (so indeed made by him), I would prefer his instruments over anything the western makers could offer me.
Playing the Didgeridoo is taking the time to catch up with mother earth
