DUDUK AS AN ENSEMBLE AND ORCHESTRAL MUSICAL INSTRUMENT

The progress of the professional development of the duduk performing school in Armenia has led to the creation of duduk ensembles. Considering the compositions performed by this ensemble, it should be noted that the duduk performing monodies, in this case, is a performer of a polyphonical, homophonical-polyphonical mixed musical canvas. As an Armenian folk instrument, the duduk gradually spread throughout the world as a result of the extensive concert activity of master musicians. Representatives of different nationalities in many countries began to play this instrument. The duduk is also often heard in many popular pop-folk bands today
