Hi Tiffany I play this tune in the Dulcimer Group I belong to. Its called the "Hey" Polka because at the "stops" our audiences are prompted to shout "Hey"! We all have fun with this tune....However getting it up to speed on the harp is another challenge...LoL

[@tiffanyharpandsong]

Yep! We usually shout "Hoy!" (Hoy being an Orkney Island) but it's so much better with a crowd, I left it out!

[@clairelecuyer]

I love it! I hope I'll be able to play this kind of fast tune one day!

[@tiffanyharpandsong]

It's a bit of a tricky one, though I think it sounds harder than it is! But I'm hoping harp 2 is easier for folks who haven't been playing as long. :)

That is Wiggen Snoa, by Rubert Wigg. It is played all over Scandinavia very popular dance tune. I play it on the Accordion for Scandinavian dance. I bet you those good old Vikings brought it down to Scotland.

[@tiffanyharpandsong]

I have heard it called Wiggen as well! Thanks for letting me know the composer. It also ends the Shetland Folk Festival every year. :) Do you know if the tune is public domain? I was led to believe it was traditional, but apparently not!

[@tiffanyharpandsong]

check out where you're supposed to shout "HOY" in this video - it's better with more people doing it! kzbin.info/www/bejne/a5esYmyMattshc0

@@tiffanyharpandsong Looks like fun! Hoy! Thanks.

[@SonnenkindJKG]

Sounds like a tune from Bavaria or Austria 😄

[@tiffanyharpandsong]

I stand corrected - it's orginally from Sweden! But very popular in Orkney and Shetland. :)
