Report about our visit to Pirenostrum 2008

Posted on August 16th, 2008 by jsurba.
Categories: exhibitions, foto, music instruments.

The old small charming village Boltana placed high in Pyrenees gave kind welcome for music instruments builders, musicians and guests  from different countries. They all came because of Pirenostrum, the festival of music instruments.

Here everybody knows each other and the old stoned houses called “casa” always have their own names. For our exhibition stand we got place in the beautiful casa Coronel.
   

Each day was full of program and a lot of visitors came to see and to try bagpipes from differents parts of Spain, hurdy gurdy, flutes, drums etc. etc. etc…  The old casa Coronel was full with people too. They   were interested in our instruments: jews harps, futuristic fujaras, futujaras

and bagpipes as also nice small flutes from Mallorca called Xirimjeta made by our friend Junajo: a talented painter, ceramist,  biologist and bagpipe builder in one! With him we were happy to travel and have the stand together.

during smal breaks Julia was decorating the bagpipe made by Junajo and Nadishana was playing Futuristic Fujara, so no time was lost there:)!

During the festival there were two good surprises, which were very special for us. The first was a meeting with an innovator in bagpipe building – Francisco Calvo Regueiro, very nice person. His gaitas can be easily played for about half an hour without hard blowing into the bag!!! Sounds like a dream for a bagpipe player, wright?! And Francisco was very interested in futurustuc fujara. Of course in this situation the exchange of instruments was the best solution for both: Nadishana and Francisco:)

The second thing was a meeting with a boy from the village who had seen the concert of Vladiswar Nadishana at the Conspiremus-festival two years ago and was infected by the wish to learn to play jews harp. We remembered him well, because he came after the concert to the stage to see the jews harp from a close distance, and Nadishana was showing him how it works. Now he came especially to get his first jews harp from Nadishana and was very happy after he hold his own one in the hand. We hope to see him next time playing!

Design for Futuristic Fujara

Posted on June 13th, 2008 by jsurba.
Categories: design, foto, music instruments.

The idea of Paul Marshall about making slovak traditional overtone flute called FUJARA out of PVC is not lost. More than that Nadishana  encouraged  Max Brumberg, experienced fujara maker to build one, which became the name Futuristic Fujara. They both put new ideas to the construction, so this new beautiful sounding music instrument which actually combines 3 instruments in one has influenced Kuzhebar Design to develop special designs for it.

The results are here to see. Two Futuristic Fujara designs in brown: opaque and glossy, one in balck and one in bronze.

To buy Futuristic Fujara and to watch instructinal and demonstration video please go here.

We developed also suitable fujara-bags made from esthetic leather imitate called "nappa", which are very light and easy to clean.

New designs of Futiristic Fujara are coming soon!!!
