Nowadays, doing work experience is pretty much essential if you want to get a job. Most young people will do a spot of work experience at some point; although far fewer will end up doing paid work experience. Let’s face it, there’s a lot of unpaid work experience out there.
When we talk about work experience, we are referring to a week or two spent gaining experience at a company, institute or organisation. For longer periods, or more structured work experience programmes, check out our internships section and unpaid internships article.
Balalaika is a Russian folk stringed musical instrument. The sound is sonorous, but soft. The most common techniques for extracting sound are: clanking, pizzicato, double pizzicato, single pizzicato, vibrato, tremolo, fractions, guitar techniques. It is curious that the very name of the instrument, typically folk, is the sounding of the wording conveying the character of the game on it. The root of the words "balalaika", or, as it was also called, "balabayka", has long attracted the attention of researchers to kinship with such Russian words as balakat, balabonit, balabolit, joking, which means chattering, ringing (go back to the common Slavonic * bolbol of the same meaning ). All these concepts, complementing each other, convey the essence of the balalaika - an instrument of light, funny, "rapacious", not very serious. Balalaika is one of the tools that have become (along with the harmony and, to a lesser extent, a pity) musical symbol of the Russian people.
