7 Western players inspired by traditional playing (9/10)

This episode is in French. My podcast is only available in French for now.

It’s not only Aboriginal people who play the Yidaki (traditional didgeridoo)! Some Westerners, keen on this style of playing, have drawn inspiration from traditional techniques. In this podcast (in French), Greg invites us to discover seven of them through their tracks. And you’ll be surprised to hear how each player’s particular style can feed our creativity and our understanding as contemporary didgeridoo players!

    It’s true that the traditional music of the yidaki can seem impenetrable. But I think that, in fact, not only does it deserve to be appreciated, but you also have to earn the right to appreciate it.
    And thanks to you two, we’re on the right path for that. So, once again, a big thank you.

    C’est vrai que la musique traditionnelle du Yidaki peut sembler hermétique. Mais je pense, qu’en fait, non seulement elle mérite d’être appréciée mais il faut également mériter de l’apprécier.
    Et grâce à vous deux, nous sommes sur le bon chemin pour cela. Alors, encore une fois, un grand merci.

    1. Thank you Patrick. I’m happy to contribute, even if only a little, to spreading Aboriginal culture even though I play contemporary didgeridoo.

      ? Merci Patrick. Je suis heureux de participer, un temps soit peu, à la diffusion de la culture Aborigène même si je joue du didgeridoo contemporain.

  2. Congratulations to both of you for this podcast series and for highlighting this facet of the didgeridoo!
    Grégory could also have counted himself among the lot as an eighth mercenary : ) He was very complimentary towards us balandas, that’s very kind of him.
    Thank you also for posting the link to my animated story video. By the way, it will only stay online on the Opale Foundation page until early July.

    Bravo à vous 2 pour cette série de podcasts et de mettre un en lumière cette facette du didgeridoo !
    Grégory aurait aussi pu se compter dans le lot pour un huitième mercenaire : ) Il a été très élogieux pour nous autres balandas, c’est très gentil de sa part.
    Merci aussi d’avoir posté le lien de la vidéo de mon conte animé. Si jamais, elle ne restera en ligne sur la page de la Fondation Opale que jusqu’à début juillet.

    1. Ok thanks David for these clarifications, feel free to share (here or by email, I’ll add the link) a link where we can find your video in a lasting way. This series is a real pleasure to make, I’m glad we were able to talk about you. 🙂

      Ok merci David pour ces précisions, n’hésite pas à partager (ici ou par mail, j’ajouterai le lien), un lien avec lequel on pourra retrouver ta vidéo de manière pérenne.
      Cette série est un vrai plaisir à faire, je suis content que l’on est pu parler de toi. 🙂

      1. Thank you Gauthier, my video was intentionally temporary as it was suited to the lockdown period. However, what I can share is the teaser here: https://www.facebook.com/watch/?v=374577766846558

        Merci Gauthier, ma vidéo était volontairement temporaire car propice à la période du confinement. En revanche, ce que je peux partager c’est le teaser ici: https://www.facebook.com/watch/?v=374577766846558
