Didgelement
Maker of didgeridoos using the Sandidg method
Didgelement, Christian, Who is he? A musician since the age of 10, I have always been fascinated by musical instruments from around the world, whether traditional or contemporary. It was therefore quite natural that I became interested in the didgeridoo when it crossed my path in 2003.
Since that day I have not stopped playing, nourishing a passion that continues to grow as I discover the incredible musical possibilities of the instrument. It was in 2006, through a meeting in Grenoble, that I began to make didgeridoos using the "sandidg" method, thus putting to good use my passion for artisanal work with this noble and magical material that is wood. Since then, I have made numerous instruments, gradually perfecting my working methods and constantly raising my standards, so as to be able to have the best possible instruments to develop my playing.
It was under the impetus of my player friends that I decided to offer my creations for sale, with the hope of allowing other didgeridoo enthusiasts to have instruments capable of satisfying their demands for excellence, both in terms of playability and sound quality, as well as originality and aesthetics.
Comment Does Christian do his didgs? The design of a didgeridoo begins with the choice of wood species. The two varieties that I like the most are cherry and maple because of their aesthetic and acoustic properties, however, I also use many other local species that I can find in the forest or in clearing areas (walnut , boxwood, beech, ash, holly, fruit trees……etc…). I use the so-called “sandidg” manufacturing method which consists of cutting a trunk or branch in two, and symmetrically avoiding the two parts and then gluing them back together. Although I also like working with branches, most of the didgeridoos I make are made from wooden trays that I select from the sawmill using the same method.
The advantage of starting from beams rather than branches, apart from the fact that it is perfectly dry wood and therefore less exposed to cracks, is that instead of limiting oneself to the natural shape of the branch as it is usually the case, here you can be totally creative and approach the development of the didgeridoo like that of a sound sculpture.
During production, I first take care of designing the shape of the air column according to the desired acoustic properties and aesthetics. After gluing, my instruments are reworked to obtain perfect balance, impeccable playability and optimal sound quality, which will give a unique character to each didgeridoo. Then, because I consider the didgeridoo as a musical instrument that can be played both solo and in a group, each of my creations is carefully tuned both in terms of the fundamental note and the vibrations. I then restore a natural side to the instrument by sculpting the exterior, thus playing on the shape, veining and other characteristic features of the wood that I strive to highlight.
I think that our musicality develops more with a didgeridoo that we have a pleasure to look at and which resembles us. It is therefore essential to me that each of my creations is both a high quality musical instrument and a unique personalized piece of craftsmanship.
Each Didgelement instrument is carefully varnished inside and out, not only for aesthetic reasons, but also for sound reasons and resistance over time. The keys of my mouthpieces, on the other hand, are made of polished wood in order to avoid any contact with the varnish, while ensuring optimal playing comfort.
Finally, for the sake of durability and transport, each of my didgeridoos has a standard Didgelement cover, carefully made from a durable fabric and lined with foam for added protection. For the most exceptional instruments, a custom cover is made with additional reinforcement at the level of the bell, a handle, as well as a balanced handle for perfect support. “ Kriss.
