@Hello H2O First saw this guy play with the Chick Corea Electric Band in the early eighties while I was going to North Texas State to study music. Let's just say I was ready to quit and never pick up the sticks again by the time the concert was over.

Yeah, I have followed Weckl for quite a long time. Even had one of his instructional videos when he first came out. Looked about 17, but was already a monster.

The duduk is easily the most recognizable Armenian musical instrument. With different variations and names, it is used throughout the region – the Balkans, the Middle East, the Caucasus, and Central Asia.

Phew Gaby. It feels like the weight of a thousand years of sorrow . I'm immediately taken to the Armenian Genocide
but many other horrors as well. Very very moving and emotional. Do you know if it's dedicated to anything in particular or even it's date..

Not really, I think it's very old though. A forum member once recommended the Duduk renditions from Levon Minassian:

Duduk - Wikipedia

en.wikipedia.org

The duduk (/duːˈduːk/ doo-DOOK; Armenian: դուդուկ IPA: [duˈduk])[1] is an ancient Armenian double reed woodwind instrument made of apricot wood. It is indigenous to Armenia.[2] Variations of the Armenian Duduk are found in other regions of the Caucasus and the Middle East including Azerbaijan, Georgia, Russia, Turkey and Iran.[3][4] 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...

UNESCO proclaimed the Armenian duduk and its music as a Masterpiece of the Intangible Heritage of Humanity in 2005 and inscribed it in 2008.[5][6] Duduk music has been used in a number of films, most notably in The Russia House and Gladiator.

The other day I located the name of the artist and album that I believe the above music is from. It was listed in the comments section to the youtube video and is: Yeghish Manukyan - Haykakan Duduk. Thanks for sharing this beautiful music.
