a very expressive and striking performance. gorgeous sound and visually striking as well. very pretty woman. love the way her hands and arms look when she is playing. every part of her performance and visual is in perfect "harmony". thanks! the sound was really great too. was there an internal mic or was it recorded from a distance?

why the usage of the green screen?

You have bewitched an old Englishman with your skill and artistic performance. I heard of Gusli when I was a young man back in 1960's. I visited Moscow in 1980's and bought vinyl discs of Gusli music. Now then Olga; believe this if you can. I made myself a Gusli because I was so fascinated by the magic sound. It is only a simple version and I cannot play it. My fingers are like bunches of Bananas. Until now, I never heard such beautiful music as yours, Thank you very much.

I love how you worked on the dynamics. If you compare this version with the previous video you uploaded with this song, it shows how much you have grown over the years. Keep growing, I'm sure I'm not the only one that absolutely LOVES your playing.

Great to hear that! The most famous legend is about Sadko. I'm sure there must be English versions available on Internet.
