Duo instruments
The instrument was purchased in St. Petersburg, when Evgeniya entered the music school. The warm and relatively matte timbre of the domra immediately came to the young artist's liking and, to a great extent, influenced the formation of her performance technique.

The instrument was presented to Vladimir by grateful listeners and the Netherlands - John and Manon Machiels. Wandervogel - an instrument created at the turn of the 19th and 20th centuries in Germany is a hybrid of guitar and lute. This instrument owes its birth to the eponymous German youth movement Wanderfogel (German for "Migratory Birds"), which existed from 1890 to 1936.
