Wititj yidaki
Una nota bassa in Do rarissima, uno yidaki Wititj nero, costruito dall'old man molto tempo fa dopo una grandissima tempesta nella Terra di Arnhem e usato in una cerimonia per allontanare la tempesta dal paese
Uno strumento molto potente, si sente davvero qualcosa di forte al suo interno...
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.
