:: Georgian Wind instrument - Duduki
Duduki is a Georgian national wind musical instrument. Duduki has originally come to Georgia from Eastern countries in XVII century. It was an inseparatable part of feasts of old Georgian residents “Karachogheli” and grand dukes. From that time, Duduki’s design has been gradually improved and its repertoire richened with Georgian melodies.
The repertoire of Duduki has improved especially since the well known folk musician (singer), Anna Vardiashvili added to the group of Duduki players the third Duduki in the 50’s of XX century (i.e. there are three Dudukis and one Doli in an ensemble nowadays). Since then, the ensemble began to perform three part Georgian (polyphonic) songs and became well known all over Georgia and in many foreign countries.
