Vatche Hovsepian

Vatche Hovsepian (sometimes credited as Vatche Housepian; Armenian: Վաչե Հովսեփյան; 1925–1978) was a duduk player.[1] With Antranik Askarian, he performed the duduk parts on "The Feeling Begins," the first track of Peter Gabriel's Passion, the soundtrack album from Martin Scorsese's film The Last Temptation of Christ. The duduk recording is actually an excerpt from a song titled "The Wind Subsides," originally recorded for a collection of Armenian music released by Radio France's Ocora label.
