It is commonly played in pairs: while the first player plays the melody, the second plays a steady drone called dum, and the sound of the two instruments together creates a richer, more haunting sound. The unflattened reed and cylindrical body produce a sound closer to the English horn than the oboe or bassoon. Unlike other double reed instruments like the oboe or shawm, the duduk has a very large reed proportional to its size.
UNESCO proclaimed the Armenian duduk and its music as a Masterpiece of the Intangible Heritage of Humanity in 2005 and inscribed it in 2008.{{cite web|title=Sounds of Armenian duduk|url=http://www.unesco.org/new/en/venice/resources-services/multimedia/photo-stories/sounds-of-armenian-duduk/|publisher=UNESCO|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20140316183627/http://www.unesco.org/new/en/venice/resources-services/multimedia/photo-stories/sounds-of-armenian-duduk/|archive-date=16 March 2014|date=November 2012|quote=Duduk and its music were inscribed on the Representative List of the Intangible Cultural Heritage of Humanity in 2008 (originally proclaimed in 2005).

Etymology
There have been two published lines of thinking on the origins of the word.
Both the Russian book Musical Instruments Encyclopedia (Музыкальные инструменты. Энциклопедия) and American book Musical Instruments, A Comprehensive Dictionary give an ultimate origin of the name as Persian, the word tutak.{{cite dictionary |entry= Duduk |title=Musical Instruments, A Comprehensive Dictionary |first= Sibyl |last= Marcuse |publisher= Doubleday |place= Garden City, New York |date= 1964 |page=157|url=https://archive.org/details/musicalinstrumen00marcus/page/156/mode/2up}}{{cite book |title=Музыкальные инструменты.

In Armenia, the instrument is also known as tsiranapogh ({{ill|ծիրանափող|hy|Դուդուկ|vertical-align=sup}}).
This instrument is not to be confused with the northwestern Bulgarian folk instrument of the same name (see below, Balkan duduk). Similar instruments used in other parts of Western Asia are the mey and balaban.
Overview
The duduk is a double reed instrument with ancient origins, having existed since at least the fifth century, while there are Armenian scholars who believe it existed more than 1,500 years before that.{{cite book|editor=Broughton, Simon |editor2=Ellingham, Mark |editor3=Trillo, Richard|year=1999|title=World Music: Africa, Europe and the Middle East|page=[https://archive.org/details/roughguidetoworl00simo/page/334 334]|isbn=9781858286358|url-access=registration|url=https://archive.org/details/roughguidetoworl00simo/page/334}} The earliest instruments similar to the duduk's present form are made of bone or entirely of cane. Today, the duduk is exclusively made of wood with a large double reed, with the body made from aged apricot wood.{{cite book|title=Cultural Sociology of the Middle East, Asia, and Africa: An Encyclopedia|date=2012|publisher=SAGE Publications|location=Thousand Oaks, California|isbn=9781412981767|page=[https://books.google.com/books?id=GtCL2OYsH6wC&dq=modern+duduks+are+typically+made+from+aged+apricot+wood&pg=PA167 167]|editor1=Andrea L. Stanton |editor2=Edward Ramsamy |editor3=Peter J. Seybolt }}
The particular tuning depends heavily on the region in which it is played. An eight-hole duduk (not counting the thumb hole on the lower side) can play ten successive notes of a diatonic scale with simple fingering, or sixteen consecutive notes of a chromatic scale by half-covering holes. For example, an A duduk can play all the notes from F♯ to the A more than an octave higher.{{cite web |title=Duduk Fingering Chart |url=https://www.armenianduduk.am/fingering-chart-for-duduk.html |publisher=ArmenianDuduk.am}}{{cite web |title=HOW TO PLAY DUDUK 3: Playing a scale |url=https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Qbq5CoTpYKI |website=YouTube | date=3 February 2014 |publisher=DudukLessons.com}} (Another reference gives different information.{{cite web |last1=Dr John Vartan |title=Armenian Duduk An Instructional Book For Beginners |url=http://www.johnvartan.com/DudukInstructions_JohnVartan.pdf |publisher=American Recording Productions |date=2000}}) By using the lips to "bend" notes and partially covering holes any pitch in this range can be produced, as required for Oriental music.{{cite web |last1=David Brown |title=The Duduk & Mey: History, Info and Set-Up |url=https://larkinthemorning.com/blogs/articles/the-duduk-mey-history-info-and-set-up |website=Lark in the morning|date=27 April 2017 }} The instrument's body has different lengths depending upon the range of the instrument and region. The reed (Armenian: եղեգն, eġegn), is made from one or two pieces of cane in a duck-bill type assembly. Unlike other double-reed instruments, the reed is quite wide, helping to give the duduk both its unique, mournful sound, as well as its remarkable breathing requirements. The duduk player is called dudukahar (դուդուկահար) in Armenian.
The performers use air stored in their cheeks to keep playing the instrument while they inhale air into their lungs. This "circular" breathing technique is commonly used with all the double-reed instruments in the Middle East.{{cite web|last=Albright|first=Ch.|title=BĀLĀBĀN|url=http://www.iranicaonline.org/articles/balaban-a-cylindrical-bore-double-reed-wind-instrument-about-35-cm-long-with-seven-finger-holes-and-one-thumb-hole-play|publisher=Encyclopaedia Iranica|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20140316214716/http://www.iranicaonline.org/articles/balaban-a-cylindrical-bore-double-reed-wind-instrument-about-35-cm-long-with-seven-finger-holes-and-one-thumb-hole-play|archive-date=16 March 2014|date=15 December 1988}}

History
Armenian musicologists cite evidence of the duduk's use as early as 1200 BC, though Western scholars suggest it is 1,500 years old.{{Cite web|url=https://www.encyclopedia.com/education/dictionaries-thesauruses-pictures-and-press-releases/gasparyan-djivan|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20110628233103/http://www.encyclopedia.com/doc/1G2-3428400203.html|url-status=dead|title=Gasparyan, Djivan | Encyclopedia.com|archive-date=June 28, 2011|website=www.encyclopedia.com}}{{Unreliable source?|date=July 2019}} Variants of the duduk can be found in Armenia and the Caucasus. The history of the Armenian duduk music is dated to the reign of the Armenian king Tigran the Great, who reigned from 95 to 55 B.C."The roots of Armenian duduk music go back to the times of the Armenian king Tigran the Great (95-55 BC)": "[http://www.unesco.org/culture/ich/index.php?RL=00092 The Duduk and its Music] {{webarchive|url=https://web.archive.org/web/20140316183455/http://www.unesco.org/culture/ich/index.php?RL=00092 |date=2014-03-16 }}. UNESCO. Accessed February 8, 2010. According to ethnomusicologist Dr. Jonathan McCollum, the instrument is depicted in numerous Armenian manuscripts of the Middle Ages, and is "actually the only truly Armenian instrument that's survived through history, and as such is a symbol of Armenian national identity ... The most important quality of the duduk is its ability to express the language dialectic and mood of the Armenian language, which is often the most challenging quality to a duduk player."{{cite news|last=Turpin|first=Andy|title=Nothing Sounds Armenian Like a Duduk: ALMA Lecture|url=http://www.armenianweekly.com/2010/02/12/nothing-sounds-armenian-like-a-duduk/|access-date=16 March 2014|newspaper=Armenian Weekly|date=12 February 2010|url-status=live|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20120312141743/http://www.armenianweekly.com/2010/02/12/nothing-sounds-armenian-like-a-duduk/|archive-date=12 March 2012}}
Balkan duduk
While "duduk" most commonly refers to the double reed instrument described on this page, there is a very similar instrument played in northwestern Bulgaria. This is a blocked-end flute known as a kaval, resembling the Serbian frula, or kavalče in a part of Macedonia,[http://www.macedoniadirect.com/instruments/supelki.htm www.macedoniadirect.com/instruments/supelki.htm] {{webarchive|url=https://web.archive.org/web/20060525162713/http://macedoniadirect.com/instruments/supelki.htm |date=2006-05-25 }} and as duduk in northwest Bulgaria.{{cite web |url=http://horo.bg/index.php?menunode=2&show=material&materialid=259 |title=Дудук : Horo.bg - българският сайт за народни хора, песни, танци, обичаи, фолклор |publisher=Horo.bg |access-date=2013-09-22 |language=bg |url-status=live |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20130927233800/http://horo.bg/index.php?menunode=2&show=material&materialid=259 |archive-date=2013-09-27 }}For a detailed description of the instrument (in Bulgarian), see {{cite web |url=http://www.bgjourney.com/Bit%20t%20Kultura/Old%20gloss/Old%20gloss%20Du.html |title=Бит и култура | Речник на остарели, редки, чуждици и диалектни думи ДЛ-ДУ |access-date=2012-03-04 |url-status=live |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20120216024758/http://www.bgjourney.com/Bit%20t%20Kultura/Old%20gloss/Old%20gloss%20Du.html |archive-date=2012-02-16 }} Made of maple or other wood, it comes in two sizes: {{convert|700|-|780|mm}} and {{convert|240|-|400|mm}} (duduce).

The sound of the duduk has become known to wider audiences through its use in popular film soundtracks. Starting with Peter Gabriel's score for Martin Scorsese's The Last Temptation of Christ, the duduk's archaic and mournful sound has been employed in a variety of genres to depict such moods. Djivan Gasparyan played the duduk in Gladiator, Syriana, and Blood Diamond, among others.{{cite web|url=https://www.imdb.com/name/nm0309222/|title=Jivan Gasparyan|website=IMDb|access-date=9 May 2018|url-status=live|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20170216105914/http://www.imdb.com/name/nm0309222/|archive-date=16 February 2017}}{{unreliable source?|date=April 2020}} It was also used extensively in Battlestar Galactica.{{cite web|url=http://www.bearmccreary.com/blog/?p=42|title=Bear McCreary – Official site|website=www.bearmccreary.com|date=28 September 2006 |access-date=9 May 2018|url-status=live|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20110928023715/http://www.bearmccreary.com/blog/?p=42|archive-date=28 September 2011}} In the TV series Avatar: The Last Airbender, its computer-altered sound was given to the fictitious Tsungi horn, most notably played by Iroh and often being featured in the show's soundtrack. With many of the members who worked on ATLA now working on The Dragon Prince, the duduk regularly appears in its soundtrack as well. The sound of the duduk was also used in The Chronicles of Narnia: The Lion, the Witch and the Wardrobe for a lullaby which Mr. Tumnus plays on a fictitious double flute, and was featured in the theme song of the Dothraki clan during the TV adaptation Game of Thrones.{{Cite web|url=http://www.monstersandcritics.com/soundtracks/news/article_9955.php/Harry_Gregson-Williams_Talks_Narnia_&_Narnian_Lullaby_Clip|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20120721212529/http://www.monstersandcritics.com/soundtracks/news/article_9955.php/Harry_Gregson-Williams_Talks_Narnia_%26_Narnian_Lullaby_Clip|url-status=dead|title=Harry Gregson-Williams Talks Narnia & Narnian Lullaby Clip|archive-date=July 21, 2012}}[http://www.dw.com/en/no-flutes-allowed-composer-ramin-djawadi-on-the-music-of-game-of-thrones/a-19201563 No flutes allowed: Composer Ramin Djawadi on the music of 'Game of Thrones'] {{webarchive|url=https://web.archive.org/web/20161101104943/http://www.dw.com/en/no-flutes-allowed-composer-ramin-djawadi-on-the-music-of-game-of-thrones/a-19201563 |date=2016-11-01 }}, Deutsche Welle
