Learn music theory and play the guitar

The balalaika is a musical instrument, used in Russian folklore, similar to a guitar, but smaller and with only three strings. FreeBalalaikaChords allows you to learn the chords names and practice with minor or major tonalities. The software displays each chord on an individual button, that can produce the genuine sound rendered with the balalaika.
Moreover, each chord is represented as dots on a fretboard, in TAB view and in an image depicting the correct placement of the fingers. Given the instrument’s physical particularities, a correct grip of the fretboard can be very important. You can easily study the correct way of playing chords on a balalaika.
