The conductor of the ensemble Dmitry Dmitrienko not only gave a lesson in playing the domra, balalaika and bayan, but also told the participants of the master class about how these folk instruments appeared, how they differ from each other and from other instruments that are played on today. In addition, he shared a story about the Russian musician, composer, balalaika virtuoso Vasily Andreev, who in 1888 created the Great Russian Orchestra - the world's first orchestra of folk instruments. Soloists of the Ensemble "Russia" named after L.G. Zykina also performed for the guests.
