His ten-piece Gypsy orchestra includes bass, guitar, accordion, trumpet, clarinet, violins, a singer, and Balogh himself on cimbalom, a stringed instrument played with mallets.
Classical composers from Bartk to Liszt to Stravinsky have written for the instrument, and Balogh has performed their works with symphonies all over the world.

 Howard Alden, MP3 Music Download at eMusic
Howard Alden is to the guitar what Scott Hamilton, Warren Vache, Dan Barrett, and Ken Peplowski are to the tenor, trumpet, trombone, and clarinet.
Alden began playing guitar at age ten and he counts his early influences as guitarists Barney Kessel, Charlie Christian, and George Van Eps in addition to Louis Armstrong, Benny Goodman, and Count Basie.
His many recordings (which include a quintet co-led with Barrett, sessions on the seven-string guitar with his idol George Van Eps, and duets with Peplowski) are all enjoyable and perfect examples of modern swing.

The sound of the Guitar (a ten string version) has a depth and warmth that is astonishing at first and may spoil you when you return to versions on the standard guitar.

 Perfect Pitch Online
While Becker joined David Lee Roth’s band and supplied guitar parts for Roth’s album A Lil’ Ain’t Enough (and sadly having his promising career interrupted after being stricken with Lou Gehrig’s Disease), Friedman brought his elegant, Asian-influenced guitar stylings to Megadeth, helping the band earn multi-platinum sales and a string of top ten radio hits.
After releasing two Cacophony albums in the late ‘80s — both of which set new standards for aspiring guitar wankers — Friedman and Becker remained friends but took separate career routes.
It seems like only yesterday that ex-Megadeth guitarist Marty Friedman was in the Bay Area speed metal band Cacophony with fellow virtuoso Jason Becker.
