The '''yidaki''' is a ceremonial Indigenous [[Australia]]n instrument traditionally made from a [[eucalyptus]] [[tree]] hollowed by [[termite]]s. As is the tradition of the Yolngu, only certain men are allowed to play this instrument. It is unfortunately misunderstood by [[Europe]]ans, who falsely named it '''didgeridoo'''.

Players of the yidaki use a technique called '''circular breathing''', which is essentially when you continuously breathe out while sporadically breathing in. The yidaki produces a deep drone that accompanies ceremonial songs, alongside [[clapsticks]]. Other drone instruments include [[bagpipe]]s (one pipe), [[aulos]], and [[tanpura]].
