The Sound of Nyckelharpa

This playlist showcases the rich and resonant tones of the nyckelharpa, a traditional Swedish keyed fiddle with a deep folk heritage. Featuring a mix of solo performances, ensemble pieces, and orchestral arrangements, the selection highlights both traditional tunes and modern interpretations. Tracks like "Akademipolska" by Rydvall Mjelva and "Hårgalåten / The Nyckelharpa / The Fourth Health" by Bellevue Rendezvous emphasize the instrument’s rhythmic and melodic capabilities, while collaborations like "ABRÉGÉ - folk suite for nyckelharpa and string orchestra, I. Kapten Kapsyl" by Emilia Amper offer a broader sonic landscape. From lively polskas to reflective waltzes, this collection provides a deep dive into the expressive range of the nyckelharpa.
