The Armenian duduk is a kind of flute, an instrument that belongs to the reed family of wind instruments. Its history is at least two millennia, during which not a single important event in Armenia was complete without playing the duduk. Listeners assure: these heartfelt melodies reach the very depths of the soul, making it sing or cry - depending on the desire of the performer. According to UNESCO, the Armenian duduk instrument is an important part of not only the national, but also the global cultural heritage. Such recognition has made the Armenian flute very popular these days - the musical instrument duduk is used by bands working in completely different genres.
