Balkan Folk Instruments

Play your favorite Greek and Balkan folk instruments through this app!

Instrument Selection includes:
Gaida (Greek Bag Pipes)
Doumbek (Hand Drum)
Pontian Flogera (Flute)
More to come soon!

Recordings of instrument notes are from live recordings of professional folk musicians, so playing through the iPhone sounds almost exactly like playing the instrument in real life.

Blow into the mic to blow up the bag pipe initially and play it just like you would the real instrument.

"Great way to begin learning how to play. Especially since buying one of these instruments can run you up to $600" - Barba Vasili, Greek Folk Musician

Folk music fans from all over the world love this app because of its portability, authentic sound, and ease in playing. This is a great tool for learners and beginners! No musical training required!

NEW FEATURES COMING SOON:
*******************************
Ability to download various song tutorials. The iGaida will play the notes of the given song, and show the fingerings of each note as it is played so that the learner can finger along with the tutorial. In almost no time, the learner will be able to know how to play a real song.
This does not only apply to the iGaida. When the techniques learned from this app are transferred over to the live instrument, the player will almost instantaneously be able to play the songs from the tutorial.

Through much research and testing, we believe we have created the easiest and most accessible tool for learning to play all kinds of instruments. The techniques from these instruments directly apply to the basics for many other instruments like the clarinet etc.
