Is this what Emma Härdelin is doing now since Garmarna?

[morigue]

No, String Sisters only get together once or twice a year. She's part of the group Triakel now.

i dont get wat the exr=tra pegs are for on her fiddle but i rele like it. i cant imagin wat it wood be like to play

[morigue]

Annbjørg plays the hardanger fiddle, which has 4 regular strings and 4 sympathetic or drone strings that run under the fingerboard & under the other strings and vibrate when the top strings are played. Check out the "Horsebell Tune" video to hear the fiddle by itself.

Absolutely my favorite tune off the "Live" CD. Thanks!

There are 2 or 3 hardanger fiddle makers in the United States

You have to have someone make it for you. I am not sure if you can get it outside of Norway.

Lien's fiddle is specific to Norway.Not sure any other nations claim it as their own.I don't think so.Dette er ekte Norsk,synes jeg...
