23-string psaltery “Bylina”

Description

23-string psaltery “Bylina”

The recognizable and memorable design of Bylina was developed by founder of Baltic Psalteries Sergey and one of our customers. A fabulous instrument, which seemed to have stepped out of the pages of books about ancient Russian heroes. Every time we hold 23-string psaltery “Bylina”, we can’t help imagining that a long time ago a grey-bearded old man played the same instrument, telling legends to his grandchildren.
