Woolunda: Ten Solos for Didgeridoo
Australian Aboriginal artist David Hudson is a world-renowned  pioneer in the art of thedidjeridu. A member of the Tjapukai tribe  in Kuranda, North Queensland, he mastered thedidjeriduand  interpretive dances of his tribe at an early age. Armed with a profound  understanding of thedidjeridu, he possesses an exceptional talent  of spontaneously creating/ performing multi-leveled compositions, as  evidenced in his first solo recording, the highly acclaimedWoolunda:  Ten Solos for Didgeridooproduced by Steve Roach. It is regarded by  many experts as a ground-breaking experiment in the creative possibilities  of thedidjeridu.Known primarily for his traditional styles and  use of the traditional technique of circular breathing, Hudson is credited  for taking the art form to a new level through an innovative combination of  extended techniques and modern compositional ideas. So much so, his  inventive use of voice, space and explosive blasts of sound have more in  common with 20th century avant-garde music than ancestral Aboriginal  music.Hudson is co-founder of the Tjapukai Dance Company which, over the  past decade, have become one of Australia's premier Aboriginal tourist  attractions. Based outside of Cairns the group started offering short  performances, expanded into a purpose-built theater and currently have  developed Australia's first Aboriginal theme park.
