Have you heard the sound of jetigen? It is a Kazakh many-stringed harp-like instrument that is similar to Russian gusli. Traditionally it had seven strings, but as time when by their number has grown to 23. Eventually an contemporary version of the instrument appeared. It took 12 people, 4 month and spare parts from different counties to assemble the first ever electric jetigen in Moscow.
