(+)
The Balalaika is most often associated with Russian folklore. In The Complete Balalaika Book concert and recording artist Bibs Ekkel shares his extensive knowledge of the Balalaika as taught in Russia today.This 160-page book is divided into four sections: an extensive Foreword the Tutor A Brief History of the Balalaika and a Repertoire Section. Unlike many method books The Complete BalalaikaBook does not begin with the rudiments of music notation. Rather the 20-page Foreword offers insights on the tunings of all the instruments in the Balalaika family hand positions string sources and height adjustment and chord shapes. The author even describes how to make a bass Balalaika pick from shoe leather. The Tutor or instruction segment is written for the 'prima Balalaika' which is correctly played with the fingers only rather thanwith a pick. The Tutor jumps right in with exercises and tunes in quarter eighth and sixteenth-note values with occasional dotted notes and syncopation.  Perhaps half of the music in this sectionis shown in both standard notation and tablature. A glossary of musical signs and Russian musical terns is included. A Brief History of the Balalaika is well written and nicely illustrated. Very few method books contain such acomprehensive historical overview of the subject instrument. The Repertoire Section offers a valuable resource of Eastern European folk tunes. All but two selections in this section are written in both notation and tab withsuggested guitar chords the exceptions being an arrangement for Balalaika and Piano and a Balalaika orchestra score.  More than simple melody chord leadsheets these are the author's ownarrangements of tunes for solo Balalaika and Balalaika orchestra. Access to online audio with selections performed by the author completes this highly effective instructional book.
