Alexander Burdyug and Andrey Fesenko Photo taken here: http://www.flickr.com/photos/sunshinec/2800926237/ Musicians web page: http://volod.com.ua/burdyug_fesenko.php   ***  My friends playing in the streets... So did I once. And I'm not sure, if I won't have to do it again... Is this our - bayan / accordion players - "good luck" or sad necessity? Is this the only way to earn for a living? Why do good musicians with classical education from countries of the former Soviet Union (and others) have to play in the streets in major cases? Is there no demand for performances on serious stages? Is the world of bayan / accordion performers too narrow and there is not much space for everybody? More questions then answers.. *** Enjoy the music!       P.S. If you want to support these artists, you can buy their CDs. Do contact me from this page: http://volod.com.ua/burdyug_fesenko.php P.P.S. This is NOT an advert but trying to help.

Simply an explanation of what Bayan is.
