Wow! Another week, another major step forward! 😎 And an absolutely awesome comparison of the two instruments this time too! Hearing the clarinet in this unusual context is really special, I love the deeper tones and your "bending" of tones on both instruments. I have two technical questions for you: 1) Which of the duduks did you get from Thomann? 2) Do you have to press your lips to produce a correct pitch for some of the tones on the duduk? As I understand it, duduks are not usually tuned in a standard Western scale, so some of the notes have to always be adjusted by additional pressing of the lips, otherwise they'd sound too flat by the design of the duduk. What's your experience?
This is wonderfully evocative. Your tone on the duduk is sounding very full and rich. Were you using iTabla Pro for tanpura sounds or a pre-recorded drone?

Thanks ! I just went on UA-cam and found a backing track, link in the description :)
