Cultural Night

Once a cycle - every six weeks - we are encouraged to get together and attend a cultural activity.  I'm hoping for some traditional Russian folk dancing sometime in the future!  This week we got to go to a traditional Russian musical presentation at a local conservatory.  The head balalaika played was incredible!  I have two videos attached - one with the balalaika headliner guy and then another one without him.  The three women are playing domra and the accordion played is really playing a bayan - an accordion without a keyboard - just buttons on both sides.  I really like the bass player with the really BIG balalaika. The videos don't do the sound justice but give you a feeling for the music.  Pretty neat!
