This is nothing but propoganda for a cult group.Their plays are tedious, boring, nonsensical and stiff.

Elementary Method for the Balalaika Review

Elementary Method for the Balalaika [Paperback]

Until Bibs Ekkel wrote his Mel Bay's Complete Bailalaika Book this was *the* method to have. It was for many years the only method available in English, originally translated in 1964 from the original Russian-language edition. This is the same edition as published then, still worth the small investment. I still have my original 1964 copy!

The introductory material is succinct and gives you everything you would need to know to get started. Although the pictures are quite "old", they are helpful in reviewing your hand positions. This book is full of music throughout and would be an excellent companion to the Ekkel book. If you're serious about learning the balalaika you owe it to yourself to buy both books for the price of what would normally be a single music lesson.

As always, Tchaikovsky's finely crafted melodies flow from the page.The binding and print are easy to read and the paper is designed to last.Watching the notes dance across the page brings to mind the twirling ballerinas and wonderful stories that underlie these two masterpieces.
The Only regret that you'll have regarding this issue is that there is not a complete score out for either of these two monuments of the ballet world.
