Armenia



Be woo 'd by the Armenian duduk and enjoy the view in what is known as the first Christian land which seems to not have changed in beauty and reverence. The land bestows relics of old churches surrounded by vast beauty. The sound of the hypnotic dukuk is so pleasing to the ear and feeds the soul.
I can only think that if all the streets were filled with it, love would explode beyond the clouds higher than Mt Ararat all the way to the ears of the Angels which are probably guarding the secret of Noahs' Arc . No one is allowed up into that area and one has to wonder why?

Why does Armenia not want it found and allow tourists to come and see history as it was so long ago. I mean, Africa boasts of it being the cradle of civilization. Should we not learn while we still have things to learn from?

On the Turkey side of Mt Ararat in 2007 Some International Scientists found something they believe to be Noahs Arc but the debate continues as they are still not sure.






As you can see, I really enjoy the duduk and the old churches and landscape of Armenia.
Mount Ararat Looks so majestic in the back ground.

With so much beauty in the world, I wonder why people look to find reasons to fight .
Love and understanding can be spread by allowing the world in, to enjoy culture, language, traditions music and landscape.
There is so much food for thought to digest and it's so much healthier to climb a mountain to see something special.
People should visit other lands to see and learn to understand for themselves
how it is somewhere else.
Then we could concentrate on saving history rather than destroying it.

Have a great Day!



duduk magic



"The Duduk (pronounced doo-dook) is considered the most "Armenian" of all folk instruments because of its Armenian origins and its ability to honestly express the emotions of the Armenian people. It has a 1500 year history and is native to Armenia although there are variants played in Turkey, Georgia, and Azerbaijan. The duduk reflects the passion, celebration, and suffering of Armenia. Aram Khatchadourian once said that the duduk is the only instrument that made him cry.


I don't know about Aram K but I cry easily especially to violin music.
I have to admit though that
this duduk has a very beautiful sound to it.

I hope everyone enjoys it as much as I did.

Have a great day!!
