	Rus: Folk Musik Instruments - Part 1
		The zhaleika is the most commonly owned and used Russian folk wind instrument.
		Brelka was originally only a regional name for a zhaleika, until Andreev began to use the term to distinguish the 2-reeded instrument from the 1-reed zhaleika.
		The chanter is called a "zhaleika", being functionally equivalent to that instrument.

		Some zhaleikas can be "cross-fingered" for a couple of additional accidentals, but some cannot.
		However, the "sound" of the volynka has been preserved both in the zhaleika (which has allowed the playing technique to be preserved as well) and to some extent by the droning sound of the hurdy-gurdy (known in Russia as the "kolesnaia lira").
		The brelka (pronounced "brIOl-ka") is a double-reeded zhaleika; a sort of diatonic "folk oboe." Most I've seen have a (wooden) bell which narrows back down at the end like a bulb or egg, but some recent instruments just have a larger tubular section at the end past the fingered part of the barrel...

		My only caveat to this work is that she frequently calls a zhaleika a rozhok.
		That's probably what her Kursk region informants use, but it's a shame that she didn't add a footnote correlating her terms with a standard work such as Vertkov.
		David Cooper adds some zhaleika, dvadyensivka, percussion, and kolesnaia lira (think volynka substitute!) to some tracks.

	HISTORICAL MUSICAL INSTRUMENT COLLOQUIUM PAPERS ABSTRACTS
		A range of signs are indicators of the archaic nature of the zhaleika, a wind instrument with a single percussion reed.
		The zhaleika which is used by professional folk musicians as soloists or in ensembles, during ritual and non-ritual festivities, is qualitatively of another order, being manufactured specifically for the execution of music.
		The multicentury history of the existence of the zhaleika in Belarus provides evidence for the stable preservation of the musical instrument tradition and of its steady development.

	Efenstor: Shamanic symphonic folk metal/new age band from Central Siberia
		Following his plan to create the "truly Siberian" music he decided to buy and learn an Altaic khomus (jew's harp) and later a shamanic drum.
		Due to the search for the needed sound in the following two years the number of instruments has grown and included a Nizhny Novgorod ocarina, a Yakut khomus, a zhaleika (traditional Slavonic reed instrument), a clarinet and even a bombard (Breton double-reed instrument) as well as an electric guitar and some percussion.
		During those years Efenstor collected hundreds of melodies he was periodically finding and in the beginning of the spring 2006 he decided to start making songs for the new album using all the experience he has gathered during that time.

	Pibgorn (instrument) at AllExperts
		The Welsh Pibgorn is mentioned in the laws of Hywel Dda (codified 940â"50) which specify that every master employing a pencerdd (chief musician) should give him the necessary harp, crwth and pibgorn.
		However the instrument is almost certainly older than that, and is part of a pattern of distribution of similar reedpipes that includes the Russian zhaleika, double reedpipes from the Arab world like the Lebanese Mijwiz, the Indian Been or Pungi and the Roman Sambuca.
		It is likely that at one time the instrument existed across the British Isles (Robbie Burns tried to track down surviving Scottish players) but by the early nineteenth century seemed restricted only to Anglesey.
