    This is very common in Serbian people! My grandpa used to play this a lot along with Gusle and Gajde

      Nisu iste, priča je vrlo slična
      Al kod hrvata se iskljucivo svirala ovakva dvojnica sa 4/3 rupe i to uglavnom uvijek u toj kombinaciji. Potječu sa mediteranskog područja OVAKVE.
      Iako i u srbiji postoje dvojnice, ali ipak su drugačije dosta, te je drugačiji tip sviranja!
      Preporučam videe Stjepan iz grupe Lado! Ima fantastične informacije o tradicionalnim instruntima
      Veliki pozdrav!!

    I got one literally the exact same, carving and all, in Medjugorje in BH 4 years ago and I could never find any information on how to play it until now. Thank you for the help!

    Yeah... That's the sound I remember. My Serb grate grandpa would always have one with him, playing it all day long. Was bed bound in his last yrs, didn't want a tv in his room, and guess playing was the one thing that kept him sane. Had both double and single one next to him. But he kept one with him troughout his whole life, pissing grate grandma off, since you could always hear it :) Grandma was like "we kids would wait to hear his flute from far away, going down the road, coming home from work, and would start heating up lunch". Guess it can be played pretty loud :) In ww2 it was good if you knew how to play those smaller instruments, that could be made everywhere

    Double flute, according to the words of the old people, this flute is found among the Balkan peoples, the flutes are the same or similar, maybe it originates from ancient times, maybe from the ancient Romans or Greeks, or from the Paleolithic, it is not known exactly, my grandfather told me that the whistle has been around since very old times and is passed on to the next generations through tradition, I think this flute is as old as when people in the Balkans were still hunters and gatherers, they lived with nature and were one in freedom

    In my grandmas village there lives a man who loves to walk through the village with his dogs and he always brings his dvojnice along, its a beautiful sound but a bit creepy when you hear it at 2 in the morning

    I bought one very similar in a yard sale in the mid 70s. The left side doesn't play. I believe it is occluded with dust or the reed is warped. I've had it since I was very young. Are the designs decorative or do they have meaning?

      Hey Polona and Miloš, yes sorry, I am learning things on the way :) - I have updated the title and the description including all the Balkans. You have beautiful landscapes and beautiful instruments over there. If you have other tips or something to share about your local traditional instruments pls let me know, I would love to discover other ones and make videos about it. Blessings

    Dve = two, as in two of them.
    Dvoy = doubled or "pair" (two, side by side. Like "Twins')

    I own a bunch of different folk flutes from different cultures and one of them is this dvoinice(a). To me the way the notes come out sounding very dissonant sounds exactly like that one instrument that is from the Balkans called Gusle. I mean the one string instrument that is played with a bow and at the end of whose neck there is usually a carving shaped like a goat with big horns, or a horse. How can I put it politely. One string Gusle is of course historically important, but it does not sound pleasant. When I try playing dvoinice most notes come out exactly like the notes from musicians on TH-cam who play Gusle.

    Pronounced "Dvoy neet ze" two doubled
    Serbs, Bosnians, Croats, North Macedonias, West Bulgarians, Montenegrins, Skadrans (north Albanians due to Nato, Turkish, Islamic forced occupation) are historically "Serbo-Croatians". Or "Serbs".

    Oh, and if you like sound of flute, in general, go listen to Bora Dugić. That man's music is pure magic.

    Srpske dvojnice.
    Dve frule u jednoj.
    Dvojnice means double frula!
