notes

Darryl Dikarrna, grandson of famed Western Arnhem Land didjeridu master David Blanasi, carries on his tradition with style and confidence. Comprised of tuition, solo demonstrations, mouth sounds, explanations and stories in the Kuninjku and English languages, and the full emsemble of voice, clapsticks and mago accompaniment thanks to the White Cockatoo performing group, this is a must-have CD for all didgeridoo enthusiasts looking for cultural insight and technical advancement. 6 pages of liner notes. This is a perfect companion for Milkay Mununggurr's Hard Tongue Didgeridoo CD that is also offered on CDBaby, each disc covering one of the two traditional styles of didjeridu playing from Arnhem Land, northern Australia.

  • Fantastic!

    Darryl is one of the better known, and best in my opinion, of mimih style. The steps taken give the listener a chance to improve on his own didge techniques. Highly recommended CD.
