Performance -- a never before seen instrument | Rizal Abdulhadi | TEDxUbud

This talk was given at a local TEDx event, produced independently of the TED Conferences. Rizal Abdulhadi brings a never before seen instrument to the TEDxUbud stage. It is called the “Rasendriya.” An instrument Rizal independently created from bamboo, combining guitar with didgeridoo and percussion. His lyrics, in both Indonesian and English, talk of travel, adventure, democracy, and opportunity.
Rizal Abdulhadi is a uniquely talented multi-instrumentalist, folk singer, and social activist from West Java, Indonesia, who has dedicated his music to struggle for real change and a more creative Indonesia and world.
Rizal spent over four years traveling and playing concerts through his homeland of Indonesia between the years of 2008-2012, since then traveling with his music through Singapore, Malaysia and Australia. His new album “Rizal and Rasendriya, Away” featuring his newly invented instrument and 5 musicians from Turkey, Czech Republic, Australia and Indonesia.

[@Shyuthrosnaevin]

lel

[@arfshesaid4325]

should have played in chris lillys aboriginal production

[@kaumanaxannodtatu1515]

xavier rudd :)

[@TwistedStrummer]

Not bad. I'd have to call the instrument, a trimmed down guitar with a talkbox/didgeridoo built onto it.

[@ayeshdesilva2365]

who can say thats a singers voice ??? just a act

[@vyni1182]

Nothing new if you play what everybody always play on guitar and didgeridoo...

[@treatb09]

didgeridoo mixed with a guitar…its not a new instrument if they don't work or run each other…its just a blend of two instruments. thats like taping a harmonica on top of a kazoo and saying its something new. this is no different than playing a harmonica with a neck brace and a guitar…except you don't glue a harmonica to your guitar...

[@imhuman7149]

Xavier Rudd!

[@Mikeofindy]

Can you say Led Zeppelin... Lol

[@tintongish]

100 dislikes

[@merwinjakegarcia9174]

its look like a ak47 hahaha

[@TheSsoendazz]

This guy made guitar and digeridoo as one-NOT NEW)-instrument from bamboo. Which also not even a new innovation for instrument builder. And playing pop music? What a shame!!
