Henning Gerlt
Henning Gerlt is a qualified school teacher with 26 years experience playing a range of Didgeridoos in a manner of styles. Henning studied with contemporary and traditional masters, including legendary Galpu elder Djalu Gurruwiwi. Multiple visits to Kakadu National Park and Arnhem Land provided memorable, first-hand experiences of traditional Aboriginal culture, including Didgeridoo making, arts and crafts, and hunting. Henning’s passionate goal is to recreate such enriching experiences in workshops and seminars.
As a result of his time spent with Yolngu people, Henning was adopted into the Gumatj clan in North East Arnhem Land, the Didgeridoo’s original home.
