Русская балалайка ( Russian balalaika)

Nice. I always appreciate someone who is really good at their craft.

Such a nice instrument is the Balalaika, I always liked it as well as other stringed instruments from the world! (like the Oud, the Kantele, etc.).
Very similar to the Bouzouki from greece, but with a much richer sound, IMO.

Here on Mexico we have these instruments:

The Guitarrón (aka Mexican Bass Guitar):



The Mexican Marimba from the state of Chiapas with its very characteristic sound (although sometimes is argued it may have been originated on Guatemala rather than Mexico, and both countries discusse its place as national instrument):



And also the Arpa Veracruzana (a Harp from the state of Veracruz) with it's clear and treble sound, a bit similar to that from the Paraguayan Harp but with less body and more 'crispiness':

When I hear the sound of these musical instruments, I can smell the tropical sea and at the same time mysterious atmosphere of the Mexican desert, which can not be compared with anything...

By the way, the guitar is very popular with Russian Gypsies, but it sounds very different.

That's nice. They are graduates of Juilliard School?
Perhaps, if they will be a lot of training, eventually they will be able to perform real masterpieces, for example, as those virtuosos.

Actually, they are classically trained out of Serbia and Croatia.

In fact, I liked your video. This can hardly be called authentic performance on national instruments, but it is a cool show )

Kantele

Very similiar to гусли

Indeed, the sound of the kantele sounds very fascinating. I liked it

In fact, any national stringed musical instrument sounds pleasant to the ear. But for example, Tibetan Kangling sounds quite unusual (click on the green button "Скачать")

Is there a Website offering Russian Gypsy wives? Those gypsies were hawt

If you are looking for gypsy prostitute who wants to marry an American, I can not help you

If you want to meet a decent gypsy girl who is good at singing and dancing, I think you would be better to start the order gypsy The ensemble on your birthday, for example.

At your choice in the United States

At your choice in Russia

Although I suspect that from Russia will be a little more expensive... But nothing is impossible if there is a great desire. Good luck, Casanova!

As I said before on my previous post, I love the sound of the Kantele, it's so relaxing and makes me feel so calm.
