- The Bandura is a string instrument that produces beautiful sounds and is played here by master Степан щербак (Stepan Shcherbak) in temperatures of approximately minus 8 degrees celcius next to the famous St Sophia's Cathedral, Kiev, Ukraine. A photograph of this artist is in the gallery at www.ody-see.com
Actually, this man is playing Bandura near St.Sophia Cathedral more than 20 years. I remember him there 20 years ago.
Dr Victor Fursov - Entomologist Beekeeper Teacher just saw him
I saw him there in 2001
Beautiful memories shared Namaste 🙏
Yes this man with music and musical CD disks was very memorable for St Sophia Museum.
@@VictorFursov Does He have different cd's? How many music has be made? Would love to be able to listen to them.
I had never seen the bandura before I saw another video of this guy singing on a street corner earlier today. I asked in the comments what it was, and when I looked it up, this video of the same guy was the first result. he is an absolute icon. I hope he is doing well 💖
Wow!!! This guy's singingvoice is amazing!!
Does anyone know his name? I saw him play 18 years ago and am so pleased to see he’s still playing and singing beautifully. If anyone is in Kyiv, please go to St Sofia’s cathedral and ask him!
His name is Stephan Shcherbak ( Степан Щербак)
yes, there is just one plant that makes the Banduras. So all the Banduras all over the World are from Ukraine)
Привіт з США
Wonderful. I am not born in Ukraine, but I love the bandura sound very much, and your way of playing and singing. It touches my heart and my soul. Thank you, and, please, never stop playing -if possible-.
Hey! It has to be the same musician I saw in the courtyard of St. Sophia's Cathedral in Kiev. I could say I was on vacation, but I married in Kiev and plan to move there to live with my wife. Cool to see him on utoob
beautiful!!!!
voice, song, and instrument!
I saw and listen to this gentleman in Kiev, in Sept 2006. Beautiful...
Ukrainian Bandura has 12-68 strings
Russian Balalaika has 3 strings
Still, gotta love the Balalaika
Isn't the Balalaika used in traditional Ukrainian music as well?
@@loganpatriquin9443 nn
Well yea but a bandrua is like a harp and a balalaika is a picked instrument
is that why the balalaika sounds worse and it's easier to play it? ofc not. and it is better to compare the bandura with the russian gusli. more similarities.
I met him in Kiev and was impressed very much!!!
Very, very nice! Compliments. Many italian's group of traditional music lovers says to like traditional or etnichal music and instruments. Nobodies know Bandura... Only pipes, irish or others "celtic" instruments and music. I Discovered Bandura and eastern european's music and instruments only thanks to you and others you tube's utents. Thanks to all from Italy. Ediunicko.
Wow! Met this guy a couple of days ago. Amazing!
Браво!!! ЭТО!!! Настоящие украинские песни....
Hello Skromt
This artist is quite famous in the Ukraine and is regularly seen at St Sophia's Cathedral. He does have some recordings but unfortunately I didn't get his name last time I saw him. I am in Kyiv in May again so will try and track him down and post his details when I get back.
Just saw him in st. Sophia church
Playing a beautiful song
I hope that is created a school for young people who continue the tradition of building and playing Bandura in Ukraine.
@nowaterua Да, две недели тому назад был в Киеве, в софийском его песни слушал. Волшебно!
I hear that he is still playing and singing in Kyiv today - what a legend. Saw him in 2017.
Really?
I recorded this man on video too in this time.
i saw this guy July 2008
still rocking :D
We saw this gentleman playing on a park bench when we visited Kiev in 2006. Was fascinating. I thought he might be David Crosby's Ukrainian cousin. :-)
Excellent talent!
I think it's called "Rushnyk", but is also referred to as "Ridna Maty Moya"
now that is one epic guitar
Bandura on amazon is around $2000, it is surely produced, we had chorus of bandurists in my school in vinnytsia.. On olx com ua it would go for 500-1000$ but you need to find the shipping..
Ann Kotik May be this instrument should be named BANDERA. :-)
Yes, this man is well-known at this place for ages! :) Good luck! welcome to Kiev and Ukraine!
Inspiring
e' davvero bello strumento. anche la musica e' molto bella.
Eddy, grazie per aver condiviso questo video. lo strumento non lo conoscevo.
I like this!
Старинные инструменты .Это Душа Народа!
bravo
You are very welcome Ediunicko. I have some more video of the same player that I will try and post in the next week. Greetings from New Zealand. Kind regards
Len
Oh my goodness. I totally saw this guy! I have a photo of him!
does anybody know whether Stepan Shcherbak is still playing the bandury next to St. Sophia's Cathedral in Kyjiv?
Iconic
Super
Merry Christmas ediunicko. As far as I am aware the bandura is made in the Ukraine as I have seen it for sale there in many different cities. I am not sure if it is exported to Western Europe but I am sure the Cultural Ministry of the Ukraine will be able to help you through your local Ukrainian embassy. I can recommend travelling to Kyiv if you have not been there. Awesome history and architecture.
I thought Mark Twain was American?
very sensetive song
Красиво поет чел!
#ШевченкоТарас ?
I want a Bandura! I dont know where to buy one in Canada though :(
Thank you, that would be great! I have Ukraine and Kyiv on my list of places to visit, but sadly it will probably take some years for me to get there.
What is the name of the song he is singing?
«рідна мати моя» or “рушник»
Banduryst Stepan Scherbak
But the Bandura instrument is it still produced by someone in Ukraine? And is it also selled (exported) in Europe?
sounds like kantele, the Finnish national instrument
Справжній майстер! Відмінний відео з прекрасною живою музикою, але недовго.
What’s the song he is singing 🇺🇦🇺🇦
Matko moja ja wiem :)
@nowaterua Вона повинна бути великою, щоб побачити, як він грає в обличчя.
No cc
🙏🙏🙏Браво🤩👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏
That shit is hard.
Sean Kenney no,it isn’t. I am playing bandura for 3 years
Oh, I just noticed that your comment is four years old
Это русский национальный инструмент, так как Украины тогда не существовало...😊
В России этот инструмент тоже используется...
