Sad news indeed.
I saw him once in Lichfield Cathedral and we still talk about that performance to this day.
The duduk is a simple folk instrument carved out of apricot wood; Djivan produced such an emotionally moving sound and tone from it.
A mark of the international esteem he was held in is the fact that, in 2008 as a result of his performances, Armenia's Duduk and its music was added to UNESCO’s Representative List of the Intangible Cultural Heritage of Humanity.

video not great quality, but the sound is acceptable.
"The feeling begins" - recorded with Peter Gabriel for the film, The Last Temptation of Christ
Next track, from March last year, with his son, Jivan. The flame burns on.
