Скачать или смотреть An insane Banyawarra yidaki played by Adam Marrilaga

This is Adam Marrilaga, in our estimation the best yirdaki technician in Arnhem Land. At only 21 years old (it is his birthday today - time for some serious celebrations!!), Marrilaga's technical skills are nothing short of breathtaking. We have previously filmed Adam at Galuru as a young 19 year old, his speed, versatility and virtuosity then was already apparent.

Adam hasn't played yirdaki for a while, but he is here at iDIDJ Australia as artist-in-residence to recover his health... is body has taken a bit of a beating in the past 6 months due to neglect. He will be playing some amazing sticks, craft yirdaki, and hopefully make a full recovery during his time here.

The yirdaki being played here is by Banyawarra, it is an instrument we have kept the longest of the handful she has made and painted for us. No words would do justice to it, just listen!
