[@jangunnarsson618]

Detta är nog den absolut bästa låt jag vet av alla musikstilar, tack Emilia Amper! Emilia besitter ett stort djup, av det magiska med just Sverige.

A nyckelharpa (Swedish: [ˈnʏ̂kːɛlˌharːpa], "keyed fiddle", or literally "key harp", plural nyckelharpor) is a traditional Swedish musical instrument. It is a string instrument or chordophone. Its keys are attached to tangents which, when a key is depressed, serve as frets to change the pitch of the string. The nyckelharpa is similar in appearance to a fiddle or the big Sorb geige or viol. Structurally, it is more closely related to the hurdy-gurdy, both employing key-actuated tangents to change the pitch.

[@BlackHermit]

Strong song nyckelharpa.

Kärleken mellan man och kvinna är det som binder oss samman som människor, inget annat. Ja, I alla fall I Norden eller Europa.

Großartig: Det er veldig fint aa lytte til.

[@nathanfryer3538]

I wish I could meet you in person...your beautiful the way you play

[@keatonbyrd3498]

I am genuinely curious as to why so little grand-scale music has been written for this instrument (i.e. Sonatas, Concertos, other longer classical forms). Wonderful work!

[@angelicanord9309]

It's because it was a instrument for the common farmers not the court

[@emiliaamper6315]

It was very very rare... all through history really. It's not until now and the last decades that it is starting to spread more, both in numbers, geographically and in genres! So much exciting things are happening with the nyckelharpa right now! :)

[@pappyfiddle]

Maybe It's because of all that clacking noise. Guitar makes little finger squeaks which to my mind are charming but this goes way beyond charming into the backwoods category, won't be liked by one & all. With the guitar you caress and fondle the strings, it's very intimate. On a piano the levers and hammers interject a lot of distance and mathematical precision. So the music becomes more theoretical. The nyckelharpa is sort of like that with the violin. Maybe some inventor could work on making the pegs quieter.

[@CaptainGurdy]

I think that alle the sympathetic strings make it more difficult to play different scales and mark it as a solo instrument. Same thing happened to the Hurdy Gurdy: the drone strings make it a soloist instrument, difficult to fit in symphonic music of the 19th century.

[@keneasley33]

a quieter nykal harpa just wouldn't be the same instrument. You want fiddle music..😄

[@antheaxe7340]

vore häftigt ballt om nån gjorde en nyckelharpa fast i ståbas eller cello form

[@elbakline8364]

Extreme Beutifull 🎼🎶🌹✨✨🌹✨✨👍🏽

[@urbankotto9685]

Exept for the clickinsound the Nyckelharpa is great.

[@thesubhumancomedy]

It is, and a rather great except.

[@user3141592635]

Jag önskar det fanns fler traditionella vissångerskor från östergötland också.

[@tillyvictory]

Jädrig rent o fint sound.

[@gabrielion4577]

Underbart!

[@syrianiraqwarclashes6964]

Fin text!

[@brookslouise2877]

charming :)

Suveränt!

[@Anglo-Saxon9]

This instrument is like a hurdy gurdy but without the crank?

[@ArthurBauduin]

The instrument (the nyckelharpa)is of the same family as the hurdy gurdy, but is also has things in common with the fiddle: unlike the hurdy gurdy, it has no wheel, and the strings are played with a bow.

[@LesterBrunt]

Or like a violin with keys (and a billion strings lol)

[@Bobby007D]

Some type of Vulcan mind control device !

[@vgernyc]

Do they use this instrument in Game of Thrones for Daenerys Targaryen’s music?

[@ralphyboy25]

I would be interested in the lyrics.

[@MrFair]

ralphyboy25 You can find the lyrics in the booklet of her CD Trollfågeln. :)

[@ralphyboy25]

MrFair Thanks! I've bought a few of her songs via mp3s on iTunes - but nothing is better than having the actual CD. I will have to pursue that.:-)

[@HenateGanapati]

Ut i mörka natten leder du mig, till blanksvarta vatten, jag litar på dig. Skogen väntar runt oss susande tyst, och sjöns stilla spegel av månen blir kysst. Över oss så faller en stjärna ner, önska, säger du, jag blundar och ler. Ack om min vän du ville bli min och jag fick vara kärasten din. Så som nattens kalla luft, så klar, som stjärnorna speglas i sjön, så underbar så strålar du för mig i natt, min kära, änglar behövs ej när du är mig nära. Vid strandens kant så tar du varsamt min hand, tillsammans går vi in i skogens trygga land. Tänk, min vän, du ville bli min, och jag fick vara kärasten din. Ut i mörka natten leder du mig, till blanksvarta vatten, jag litar på dig. Skogen väntar runt oss susande tyst, och sjöns stilla spegel av månen blir kysst. Vid strandens kant så tar du varsamt min hand, tillsammans går vi in i skogens trygga land. Tänk, min vän, du ville bli min, och jag fick vara kärasten din.

[@olivierd1156]

Is it's english name ''the wild montain''?

[@reallivebluescat]

it means "into the dark night"

[@jpsalis]

must be a pain to tune it...

[@carolynomm4013]

I have been playing one since 1979, and no, not too hard to tune. But there are those that do not bother, and in my book, they mis the Magic of the sympathetic strings that make the nyckelharpa so unique. I thank my parents for giving me one when I was only sweet 16.

[@deoclicianookssipinvieira5858]

Beautiful!
