INSPIRING, COLORFUL SOUNDS OF HISTORY

Ancient Duduk Phrases lets you travel through space and time. Originating over 1,500 years ago in Armenia, the duduk instrument is listed on the UNESCO Intangible Cultural Heritage List and has found its way into endless music productions. The large reed creates a colorful timbre, perfect for atmospheric soundtracks, and is a wonderful complement to the orchestral palette. This imaginative instrument comes with live recorded phrases and a haunting legato patch.

ANNA MKHITARYAN – THE ARTIST BEHIND ANCIENT DUDUK PHRASES

Anna Mkhitaryan is a musician and ethno-music-group leader from Yerevan, Armenia. She graduated with a master’s degree from Komitas State Conservatory of Yerevan in 2011. She is the founder of the international festival of ethnic Armenian music, Tshakhruk, and with her sister leads a cultural center and music group for the physically disabled by the same name. Anna also plays other spiritual Armenian traditional instruments: the pku and zurna and frequently takes part in recordings and concerts. “When I received the offer from Sonuscore,” Anna says, “I immediately imagined how the Armenian ethnic instrument duduk would be ideal for any film.”
