The Australian Aborigines were a very primitive people prior to European intervention in their way of life, so they used the technology and materials available to them. The "Didgeridoo" is a straight hollowed out tree branch which is blown through using the vibrating lips of the player to vary the sound. A skillful player can emulate the sounds made by various bush birds and animals while maintaining the characteristic throbbing sound of the didgeridoo. You could liken it to a "low tech" bassoon with optional extras. The percussion section usually constitutes banging two sticks together. Australian Aboriginal music is quite distinctive sounding and is possibly unique in the world and, as with any music, is quite pleasing to the ear when performed by competent players. First Australians play the music they do because the songs & dances have been handed down generation after generation for thousands of years with vital cultural/educational/environmental information, while dances are adapted & new ones created by appropriate leaders, the songs normally stay the same, although didgeridoos/yidakis have slowly filtered into some traditional dance, other instruments include musical boomerangs instead of clap sticks
