Chicago Didjeridu Chorus "live" at Unity Temple in Chicago in 2016: this performance was aligned with the Worldwide Didjeridu Meditation for the Winter Solstice, during which time Didjeridu players begin playing in Australia at sunset, and players from around the world join in at sunset in their locations. It is a global prayer for peace and balance. CDC has been anchoring the Chicago area for the past 12 years or so. For more info about the Chorus, go to cddchorus.com
