Narmeh-Nay: is mostly used in the west or southwest part of Caspian Sea in a large area which did not possess political borders some 150 years ago. These were tribes such as Turks, Azeris, Armenians or Kurds, which were in love with Narmeh-Nay. The Kurds called it narmeh-nay, the Turks named it mey, it is also referred to as balaban in Azerbaijan, and doodook in Armenia. There is an instrument much similar to Narmeh-nay yet much shorter in size exists in China called guan. Narmeh-nay has limited capacity and is used to play native melodies, which range into one octave and several notes, and never reaches a second octave.
