The title of this Yiddish folk song informs us that a Balalaika will at least be inferred in the music. This wonderfully authentic arrangement does just that. It also includes a clarinet obligato (included in the back of the octavo) which is a tip of the hat to the Klezmer band. A Yiddish, phonetic and English text are all provided in the music allowing you to perform this work in any combination of Yiddish or English.

Tum Balalaika is attributed to a number of Eastern European countries, but is best known as a Russian Jewish folk/love/“riddle” song. Loosely translated, “tum” means “noise,” and the Balalaika is a Russian stringed instrument with a characteristic triangular, hollow, wooden body and three strings, closely related to the domra and mandolin. Carl Strommen's wonderful setting will help any group sound their best.

Tum Balalaika should be played brightly and in a broad flowing manner. As always, attention should be paid to dynamics and articulations.
