  • Haha, nice.. The sad thing is that my klezmer jam session group that I play balalaika in is getting more beatles-era people in it and they actually jokingly played "Yesterday" on guitar,accordion, violins, etc a few weeks ago. I, however sat it out because it was vaguely horrifying..haha!

    PS.true, it's a Domra, I actually wish I could find one of those, but good luck in Canada :(

  • These instruments are easiest to find.. in Russia, of course - find someone who is travelling, they should be cheap.

  • My brother is supposed to go there in 2008 at least.. We'll see ;)

  • Norwegian Wood sounds great with the balalaika

  • Well spotted!

    I did realise this and was thinking of correcting it - but who, in the rest of the world, has heard of a domra? And it doesn't have the charming sound of the word 'ba-la-lai-ka' :) It is such a symbol of Russian folklore and all things Russian that I decided to leave it there. Now, with your help, everyone will know that it's in fact a Beatadomra (doesn't quite sound right, does it?) :)

  • ...thats a domra, not a balalaika.
