mini bayan B-system CBA

[Deleted member 48]

TV comedy show, showing a comedian with a mini bayan (bayan mikro).
They seem to exist in different colours, looking new. Im looking for review of this instrument, and more detailed information on dimensions and brands.

The focus in this videos is on the comedy show, but now and then the accordion is played for a few seconds.


Ветров Геннадий. Частушки 2013.


Ветров баян микро и истории

Looks like a 24 bass (8x3 rows), basses + major chords + minor chords (?)
Quite a lot of notes on the right hand for this small size one !

Ветров с маленьким баяном и смешными историями

I wanted to add this 21st april 2017 video. In this video hes playing the blue mini bayan (bayan mikro), a 2 voices accordion.
In most of his videos hes hardly playing accordion, and telling jokes and comedy stuff.

This 6 minutes video has some accordion playing in it. The sound is almost French musette alike.
(Strictly speaking French musette is 3 voices, three 8 foot voices combined. But a 8+8 2 voices is also considered a musette sound)

Stephen,

Difficult to get much info on these, as Bayan is the Turkish word for lady, and also refers to a muslim religious ideal. Searching for Bayan Mikro is pretty frustrating as a result, as Im sure youve already found out. Had to cheat and use cyrillic script for the search, viz:- Баян-микро

Check this guy out on a Russian version of the Roland on a 3 row bayan. Pretty impressive stuff once he gets it all together.

Ive also seen him playing a B system 4 row Crosio CBA, and if you have the time to look through all of his other YT videos you might be lucky to hear him playing a mini-bayan.

Quite a few European players use only two voices to get a musette sound, and there is no real need for three voice musette unless the style of music absolutely demands it.

I read online the word bayan in persian and asian cultures is used in a broad sense, sometimes meaning sensual dance, eloquent speech / verse / singing.
In Mongolian bayan seems to be "rich".

In accordion terms bayan is only chromatic button accordion.

This mini CBA was a special order for comedian Gennady Vetrov, made by AKKO Russia.
I have been told it is about 3 kg. They did not say if the shoulder het straps were included.

YT a Tula bayan with midi.
I prefer the sound of acoustic accordions.
