A long-necked lute with a triangular body; one of the most popular folk
instruments of Russia. Its predecessor was the dömbra, which it replaced
during the 18th century, possibly because the triangular body was more
suitable for hand-made mass production. The Russian balalaika player V.
V. Andreyev (1861-1918) was largely responsible for improving the
instrument's design; his modifications led to the establishment of six
different sizes, each with three strings of gut or steel. The tuning of
the instrument varies according to region and the genre of music:
examples are piccolo b'-e"-a" ('discord' tuning); prime (the commonest
size) e'-e'-a' (balalaika' tuning); second a-a-d'; alto e-e-a; bass
E-A-d; and contrabass E'-A'-D. A 'guitar' tuning of major and minor 3rds
is also known. The balalaika has a flat back and a very thin, slightly
arch belly, which is usually made from four strips of spruce and is
sometimes strengthened with and extra piece of veneer on the part of the
belly where the strumming hand may strike it. The soundhole is usually
small (about 2 cm in diameter) and the neck has four or five frets.
