Duduk

This Armenian duduk has eight frontal tone holes and is tuned to G. Turned from apricot wood, the cylindrical double-reed instrument known as the Armenian national instrument is characterised by a warm, soft and slightly nasal tone colour. The duduk is usually played in pairs, with the first duduk playing the melody and the second playing an elongated drone, the so-called dam.
