Greetings!
This is AJ from Didge Project writing to wish you a great week. I am very excited about the release of our latest video, Exercises To Strengthen Breathing Muscles For Wind Instruments, which will show you how to have more power in your breath so you can play longer and stronger. Watch as we explain “diaphragmatic breathing” and show you the keys to accessing your abdominal muscles when you play a wind instrument. In the video you will also find links to bonus videos on expanding lung capacity and strengthening the muscles of the throat.
We just got a new shipment of RAV Drums (our beloved metal tongue drums) in stock. We currently have the following RAV scales available: G Minor Pentatonic, B Onoleo (still on sale for 10% off), C Golden Gate, B Minor Pentatonic, and more (see full list below).

| In this video you will learn the #1 key to strengthening breathing muscles for wind instruments. It really comes down to utilizing your abdominal muscles and your diaphragm. Some call this diaphragmatic breathing, and others refer to it as the “forced exhale” due to the pushing sensation with the abdominal muscles. |

In this pan drum comparision video and article we show the similarities and differences between 4 different metal pan drums. Each one has a totally unique sound yet they all share some common qualities. Some of these drums sustain longer than others and some have a richer overtone profile. Weight, size, and aesthetics are also major differences. Watch and hear the difference!

Project is a blog, youtube channel, series of courses and events,
instrument store and a collective of musicians who want to help you use
music as a tool for uplifting yourself and others around you.
On
our site you will find tips and tutorials to help you become a better
musician, didgeridoo lessons, instrument features and reviews, and
reports on the latest scientific research and spiritual discoveries
merging through the medium of sound.
When
we began in 2008 our main focus was on teaching how to play the
didgeridoo, a wind instrument originating in aboriginal Australia and
also said to be present in ancient Mayan times. After working with
countless people it became apparent that most musicians play multiple
instruments and that we have the community resources to help all
musicians get better results. While we still provide didgeridoo lessons,
classes and programs, our focus is to provide tutorials for music and
instruments from all around the world. Visit us for great music
resources at www.didgeproject.com |
