Magyar Duda

Budapest - Hungary

Magyar (Hungarian) Duda

The Magyar duda—Hungarian [[duda]]—(also known as tömlösíp and börduda) is the traditional bagpipe of Hungary. It is an example of a group of bagpipes called Medio-Carparthian bagpipes. In common with most bagpipes in the area east of an imaginary line running from the Baltics to the Istrian Coast, the duda’s chanters use single reeds much like Western drone reeds.
