Duda
This is a Hungarian duda bagpipe made from wood with nickel silver decoration and animal horns which function as the instrument’s bell on both the chanter and the drone. The bag is of leather, and the chanter of the instrument is fashioned into the shape of a stylized ram’s head. While the duda has only one bass drone, it has a double bored chanter, which allows the instrument to produce three pitches simultaneously.
