Ujazi HOIERE
In short: An Ujazi didgeridoo in oak, in C, born from a branch that fell after a storm: versatile, fairly round, very pleasant to play, with a very natural look.
Julien's comments: This didgeridoo in C comes from a branch I collected in the forest, right next to the workshop, after a storm, many years ago. It came from a superb oak that I often visit.
It is a didgeridoo with a fairly simple air column, rather cylindrical but not too open after the mouthpiece, for a versatile and fairly round instrument. It is very pleasant to play, and its very natural look and its story make it an instrument I have been very fond of ever since it first sounded in the workshop.
Its mouthpiece is in lace sheoak (an Australian wood), oak and red heart.
The maker: Didgeridoo Passion is delighted to team up with Ujazi Didgeridoo. I am truly won over by the quality of Julien's instruments. In a few years he has become a renowned maker, and his instruments prove it: playability, inner and outer finish, a perfect mouthpiece.
A rigour that, in the end, makes for a superb didgeridoo!

Classification
This scale is the result of an air column/bell start ratio If we divide the diameter of the bell with that of the beginning of the air column we get a number between 1.5 and 3.5. We can classify all the didgeridoos in 4 large families. Each family groups the instruments with a similar character, simply based on the overall shape of the air column (conical/cylindrical) and on the diameter of the column (wide/narrow). The result is a simple and very reliable reading grid, making it easier to search and purchase on line.
The diameters are measured with a caliper, start of the air column after the mouthpîece. This ratio is very reliable for a didg having a air column with a 'smooth' internal work, in the case of a hollowed eucalyptus instrument it give an approach of the instrumental character.

Julien Doutaz, Who is he?
"A sound engineer by training, I encountered the didgeridoo when I lived in New Zealand. I discovered it through an Australian friend and maker who taught me how to make it vibrate. I learned its importance , a little about its history and what it means to practice the didgeridoo When returning to France I felt the need to be in contact with wood and nature again and the desire to make my own instruments. pushed me to embark on the Ujazi Didgeridoo project."
Comment Does Julien do his didgs?
It is my attraction to the didgeridoo which, since 2011, has led me to make my instruments and create Ujazi Didgeridoo. Since October 2015, thanks to so much encouragement, I have made it my main activity. I started this adventure to fuel a passion and to continue this permanent search for new forms, new sounds, new harmonics, new woods and new people with whom to share all of this.
By experimenting with sounds, sculptures, woods, shapes and their associations, I seek to create unique, handmade, high-quality objects that can find and resonate something different in everyone. I work closely with people wishing to host my didgeridoos to be able to create a truly personal object, a unique sculpture, a complete instrument.
I select the species and pieces of wood according to the characteristics that I wish to give to the instrument and everything is done, both in the thinking and in the sculpture and finishes, so that the didgeridoo meets my quality criteria. sound. It is a continuous search to perfectly combine aesthetics, harmonic quality and playability. With imagination and a lot of work I live this project to offer, I hope, the best to the world of didgeridoo.
