Video interview and improvisations
I Novgorod, during the Slovisha festival in August my jew’s harp fellow reseacher Aksenti Beskrovny (Moscow) made an interview with me. I talked about my research – mainly about my work with jew’s harps – but also some other things. I play as well, with Aksenty and Anton Kamenskiy.
In addition, Aksenty published the sound tracks from the video. They consist of improvisations with different instruments, like the jew’s harps, lyre, gusli, hardingfele and rebec. Download here: Aksenty.ru/novgorod2019.zip (seven tracks with a total length of 10:46).
Thank you Aksenty for a professional and top produced video!
