Unusual instruments and where you can learn them in Bengaluru

by

Recently, the Bangalore Creative Circus at Yeshwantpur held a Sound Healing Session featuring instruments such as the didgeridoo and Tibetan singing bowls. While guitars and pianos are commonly taught, there are many unusual and lesser-known musical instruments that artistes, teachers and communities in the city perform with. A look at a few of them:
A didgeridoo is a cylindrical or conical wooden tube that produces sounds of different frequencies when played. It was originally developed by the Aboriginal peoples of northern Australia more than a thousand years ago. Didgeridoo India is a community space founded by artistes Brandon Colaco and Akash Dayal. Brandon, who has been playing and crafting the instrument for 15 years, says, “We initiated this program in 2020 to bring together those who play or have an interest in learning the didgeridoo.”
