Composition for halldorophone#5

[@Hessencemusic]

Hildur's music feels less like something you hear and more like something you experience… Every note on the Halldorophone seems to breathe, to ache, to exist with an emotional weight that lingers long after the sound fades… The way she pulls textures out of silence-fragile yet commanding-creates a space where time stretches and the air feels thick with meaning… It's not just music, it's a dialogue between artist, instrument, and listener… This performance isn’t about showcasing skill-it’s about vulnerability, raw and unfiltered… A deep, wordless conversation where every vibration carries a story… Thank you, Hildur, for reminding us that sound can touch places words will never reach…

Undratæki þetta hljóðfæri og flott tónlist, minnir mig á flug í tveggjahreyfla flugvél. Amazing musical instrument and beautiful music, sounds sometimes like flying a twin aeroplane. Love it.

So, it isn't just a cello? I can't really see what's new or different about this instrument.

[@vcmtechlab1999]

Halldorophones are purpose built electro acoustic string instrument, based on the premise of using electronically induced feedback in a coupled system of strings allowing for the creation of somewhat controlled, timbrally rich drones. In the halldorophone a positive feedback loop is induced in a coupled system of eight strings via electromagnetic pickups and a speaker cone in the soundbox of the instrument, more specifically the vibration of each string is individually detected with a dedicated single coil pickup the levels of which can be trimmed before being amplified and sent to the speaker which vibrates the whole system inducing feedback. Mimicking the major characteristics of a cello (upright, four string, fretless fingerboard, bowable string configuration) it also has four sympathetic strings running below the fingerboard (much like a viola d’amore or a barytone) which are not directly accessible for bowing or plucking but are rather electronically manipulated. All strings have the potential to be (electronically) included in or excluded from the feedback loop.

As musical as a Stuck Car Horn.
