The Duduk – an ancient Armenian reed wind instrument produced from an apricot
tree. The sound is formed from vibration of two reed plates. On the front side
of the instrument there are 7-8 holes and another one or two – on a reverse
side. In the course of evolution of the instrument masters tried dozens of
wood. However, the true sound of the instrument gave only apricots growing in
Armenia. Not without reason in the Latin name "Prunus armeniaca" it is
considered truly Armenian fruit. Ridley Scott's movie "Gladiator" in fact
revealed to the world a duduk. After the ceremony of awarding the "Oscar" film,
"New York Times" remarked: " How strange that in this godless cruel world still
there are intimate sounds". Bright sounding, velvety tone and emotion that
characterized favorite wind instrument of the people.
Armenian duduk is made exclusively from the apricot tree. Apricot tree has the
unique ability to resonate.
The duduk has a warm, soft, slightly muffled sound and velvety timbre,
characterized lyricism, emotion and expressiveness.
