Presentation
La Maison du Duduk offers various versions of the traditional Duduk in its store to satisfy the exploration desires of the most passionate enthusiasts of this instrument. Among these variations, La Maison du Duduk proudly presents the Bass Duduk.
The Bass Duduk stands out as the most mystical-sounding instrument among all Armenian wind instruments. While it generally follows the same manufacturing techniques as the traditional Duduk, its larger size gives it a deep and captivating tone. Often used in Duduk duos or trios, the Bass Duduk is highly regarded as an excellent substitute for the cello in an ensemble.
La Maison du Duduk is proud to offer Bass Duduks handcrafted by our partner artisan, Karen Mukayelyan | MKS. These instruments, of exceptional quality and designed for professional use, are rare, justifying their price variations. Notably, Karen Mukayelyan's Bass Duduks, exclusively produced for La Maison du Duduk, are priced higher due to their outstanding craftsmanship.
