"Duduk and National Identity in Armenia" offers a comprehensive analysis of the Armenian duduk, a cylindrical double-reed woodwind instrument made from apricot wood, and its significance for Armenian identity. The book examines not only the musical and structural characteristics of the instrument but also its social dimension within a sociocultural framework. It highlights the various contexts in which the duduk is played, categorizing them into solo and ensemble performances. The role of the duduk in Armenian mourning music, as well as in national celebrations and competitions, is particularly emphasized. The discussion also includes the development of folk orchestras in Armenia that emerged during the Soviet era and significantly influenced folklore. This book is aimed at readers interested in organological theories, Armenian culture, or world music.
