Spelmansglädje

[lookinglassalice]

These folks were the teachers at a nyckelharpa workshop (stemma) in california a few years back...i would love to hear them again!

[Inte100]

I love this, such good sound as well.

[Metaldude1945]

Mycket vackert :)

[Steinbach1984]

Quite a discovery, this Nyckelharpa! Is this Swedish folk music? It is remarkably similar to baroque music. Is it correct that Swedish folk music was more heavily influenced by art music that for instance Norwegian music? I can just imagine how courtly culture reached the Swedish Empire during its heyday - Stockholm was quite a cosmopilitan city then.

[aneros988]

@Steinbach1984 You raise some great questions! I wish I had the answers... someone should really answer you...

[MunkOlle]

Ni båda verkar riktigt duktiga och bra samspelade!

Åker ni/dem runt och spelar på turné eller liknande? Skulle verkligen vilja gå och lyssna på detta.

[pk22cm]

Mycket vackert!

[odahijo]

[kblmitsc]

Nämen är det inte Edward och Elin! Härligt och höra ert underbara spel!

[WhiteZombie87]

Nyckelharpa klingt einfach toll, wie teuer ist so eine Nyckelharpa?

[doines72]

A good nyckelharpa is about $2500 USD.

[090513102]

You can get a very good nyckelharpa for 1 200 USD to

[notblondeswede]

I think he want to know the money in EURO :)

[karlvonl1]

[tomaten82]

I Norra Uppland i Tobo Finns det Eriks sahlström Institutet och det grundade för att bevara folkmusiken till framtiden och minne av Erik sahlström

[galleytrotter]

Wonderful performance :)

[Bragi06]

very very good Nyckelharpa playing!

[ahmadjawadi]

The Swedish folk music is very nice and this instrument (Nyckelharpa) is really amazing.

[perryguitar]

E+E spelar ju förjävla bra!!! MVH Perry

[Svanvit666]

just beautiful, i love the nyckelharpa so much. i wish i had one to play.

[accordionman1950]

It can't be like a strathspey or reel because this tune is in 3/4 time which is waltz time.

[Domitianvs]

The type of tune is called a Polska, which is in 3/4, but in swedish folk music, that time signature is not really identified with the waltz, there are many more types of tunes that are in 3/4. The key to the Polska is that you accentuate 1 and 3, unlike just the 1 in a waltz.

[accordionman1950]

Thanks for clarifying about the time, the music is great, chees from James.

[Epicorscala06]

Bit like a strasphey or a reel, only in a slightly different pace, love it. cheers for sharing.

[SwedishDragon]

Är uppväxt med sådan här musik, underbart. Tycker verkligen resten av välrden borde få djupare insikt i den :)

[RockNow91]

Jo, det är ljuvlig musik!

Men äh, vem bryr sig om resten av världen? Så länge den finns här i Sverige är jag nöjd ^^

[bikrfsh]

I am an American and love music. I have never heard this instrument before but I think it is just fantastic. Kudos to the musicians and a special thanks to a friend in Sweden for cluing me in on it.

[accordionman1950]

I had never seen this form of violin but it is very sweet music.

[Domitianvs]

It's not a form of violin, it's more closely related to the Hurdy Gurdy.

[accordionman1950]

It's shaped similar to a violin, sounds like a violin and it's played with a bow so I'm just making my own comparisons, not claiming to be any expert, cheers James.

[accordionman1950]

According to the Oxford dictionary a hurdy gurdy is played by turning a handle, no resemblance whatsoever to this beautiful instrument.

[Berkeleyappho]

They are all related. There's a Wikipedia article on this instrument.

[accordionman1950]

Ok then.

[090513102]

If you listen to one singel nyckelharpa it doesen´t sound like a violin. Or any instrumnet in the violin family. It has much deeper and richer sound.:-)

[Jananderss]

Translated into english it would be "Key harp", the small wooden sticks that are used instead of the left hands fingers on the strings are the "keys".

[Dolleater87]

underbart att lyssna på :)

[090513102]

KAn någon säga mig vad låten heter. Skulle så gjärna vilja spela den:)

[bullebyn]

Jag tror låten heter spelmansglädjen. Av Eric Sahlström?

[ClarkEriksson]

Jag är släkt med Eric Sahlström, jag brukade sitta i hans knä när jag var liten och lyssna på när han spelade. ^^ Nyckelharpa är fruktansvärt fint.

[tomaten82]

Låten heter spelmansglädje av Erik sahlström den spelas mycket i uppland.

[UncleCaptainMidnight]

the depth and breadth and variety and beauty found in the music of this world astonishes me.

[SgtDrDeath]

Wow, fint som snus ;-)

[churamk]

great!!

[reddoten]

Beautiful.

[floppaboppa]

Ruggigt bra gjort

[AgentSniff]

Such a lovely couple. Pure joy. Great stuff.

[lookinglassalice]

Edvard a Elin taught workshops last year on the West

Coast, U.S....this tune really expresses musicians' happiness as the title suggests! this is fresh from their April performance and appearance in Pennsylvania
