So I came across a few really cool instruments the other day. One, being the udu, a clay instrument that is sometimes shaped like a pot. I really like the sound of it and I think I want to buy one. There are many different shapes of this instrument and I have found the utar udu to have the best sound. A man by the name of Frank Giorgini designed a lot of udus and then sold the designs to LP. In this video, a great udu player named Brian Melnick plays the utar udu:
If you don't already know, along with guitar and saxophone, I enjoy playing the djembe. As a hand percussionist, I think that I could play this instrument well. So, if I ever get this instrument I'll fill you in on how I'm doing and maybe even post a video.
