Baltic Psalteries
Registrace 7. 10. 2018
The channel is dedicated to musical instruments made in the workshop "Baltic Psalteries" and people who fell in love with these musical instruments from the first touch.
22 string psaltery "Whale"
A unique instrument created on the base of the helm-shaped psaltery.
Increased the number of strings to 22, we expanded thus the scale by the half of an octave. Besides, we improved the body construction by increasing the volume and adding one more cavity, so that the instrument sounds deeper and richer.
The body of the psaltery we decorated with an intricate element, which looks like a fish-tail, so we decided to call it "Whale"! The decoration is made of expensive wood species, so this is a unique instrument in all senses!
Another feature of 22 string psaltery "Whale" is an extra bar, placed near tuning pegs, which allows to install sharping levers ( small mechanisms that enable easy key changes without having to retune the instrument).
Do you wish to connect "Whale" to stage equipment or to experiment with the sound? An AUX-connector installing is available! Just contact us to discuss it ;)

How to tune the Hurdy Gurdy.
zhlédnutí 5KPřed 2 lety
There is a difference of principle from all the other modern hurdy-gurdies. Firstly, the form of the resonating body is fundamentally different, which makes the sound deeper and fuller. Secondly, it’s a handcrafted work: during final processing I don’t use any electric tools. The hurdy-gurdy is covered with natural varnish. Also my instruments are made of strong and durable materials, are unpre...

This is very valuable information! I've only read about changing strings, but it's useful to have instructial video. I used several meters of string until I finally was able to change one string. I'll remember this video the next time a string breaks. Thank you, best regards pleased customer
