I Think the comparison every one is trying to make is which is the better stick. I bet Laga would make the agave sound pretty good. The example im trying ti illustrate is a good player can make a bad stick sound great and vice versa.

Hey, thank you for your comment.This was, indeed, an inbalanced example but I don't agree that it had to with the professional concert agave or not. I must say that I have done dozens of agave didges and they are considered by some people some of the best didgeridoos made in Portugal and quite a few internationally known players like them. This particular agave I use on concert with my band and it has a really impressive sound, even compared with Yidaki and other professional instruments. ;-)

This video is all well and good, but for comparison sake it seems an imbalanced example. On the one hand you have a trad stick made by a master (Djalu) and on the other, a self-made agave. Gotta grab a profesional concert agave for "balance" next time, me thinks. Nice vid though. -Brad

Yes,this is a great comparison video,in terms of certain qualities of traditional Yidaki versus a more western oriented didjeridu. Yidaki is not for everyone,the pure traditional style is dependent on the players ability,and typically does not have the deeper resonance that non-aborigional people prefer. They both have their respectable qualities,it just depends on the nature of the player's style,traditional,or modern/funky! To me,they are both wonderful!! |
