regina_nyckelharpista<p>Passing on knowledge about my instrument and spreading my favorite tunes is a big passion of mine - and a very important part of what it means to me to be a FOLK musician. It's about sharing and spreading joy, lifting each other up, nerding around and just having an overall fantastic time together 🎉 </p><p>So here's a little info about where me and my partner Björn will be teaching workshops in 2025 (only in Germany this time).

regina_nyckelharpista<p>Today I want to offer a tune called "Nestling" to you! It was co-written by me and my partner Björn and it is about being brave and doing something you have never done before - something that might even have the potential to open a whole new world to you ... you never know! We decided to call it "Nestling" which is the same in English and German: a little bird, still in the nest, gathering the courage to leave it for the first time 🐦</p><p>I am playing the nyckelharpa here, Björn is playing a Nordic style cittern.

regina_nyckelharpista<p>The nyckelharpa is a folk instrument from Sweden 🇸🇪 with a long standing tradition there. "Nyckelharpa" is a Swedish word, "nyckel" meaning "key" and "harpa" being a general term for a stringed instrument. Its key features (hah, see what I did there?) are the sympathetic strings and a keybox full of wooden keys. Some translate it into English to "keyed fiddle" 🗝️ 🎻 "viola de teclas" in Spanish or "viola d'amore a chiavi" in Italian - although it is not a fiddle or viola ;)</p><p>How it works: I produce the sound with a bow on the strings, like on any other bowed instrument, but instead of touching the strings with the fingers of my left hand and pushing them down on a fretboard or fingerboard to play a melody, I press a key. The key moves a little wooden tangent to the string and tada, the note changes 🎉 The magical sound of the nyckelharpa is created from its sympathetic strings (usually 12) which are enhancing every note I play on the four melody strings. </p><p>If you want to hear some nyckelharpa music, you're welcome on my duos bandcamp <a href="https://aklejafolk.bandcamp.com" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" translate="no" target="_blank"><span class="invisible">https://</span><span class="">aklejafolk.bandcamp.com</span><span class="invisible"></span></a> or search for "Akleja" wherever you like to stream music. More names you can look for there are Josefina Paulson, Hazelius Hedin, Emilia Amper, Väsen, Daniel Pettersson / Sotali, Erik Rydvall - there are so many FANTASTIC players out there! 😭</p><p>The instrument pictured here was made by Mats Wester.</p><p><a href="https://sunny.garden/tags/nyckelharpa" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>nyckelharpa</span></a> <a href="https://sunny.garden/tags/musiciansofmastodon" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>musiciansofmastodon</span></a> <a href="https://sunny.garden/tags/folkmusic" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>folkmusic</span></a> <a href="https://sunny.garden/tags/instrument" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>instrument</span></a> <a href="https://sunny.garden/tags/acousticmusic" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>acousticmusic</span></a> <a href="https://sunny.garden/tags/music" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>music</span></a> <a href="https://sunny.garden/tags/luthiery" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>luthiery</span></a> <a href="https://sunny.garden/tags/stringinstrument" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>stringinstrument</span></a> <a href="https://sunny.garden/tags/sweden" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>sweden</span></a> <a href="https://sunny.garden/tags/violin" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>violin</span></a> <a href="https://sunny.garden/tags/viola" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>viola</span></a></p>
Hannah Howe<p>The Beatles dominated the early 1960s, Elton John dominated the early 1970s, REM dominated the early 1990s…can you think of any recording artists, 1956 - 1999, who dominated, shall we say, a three year window?</p><p><a href="https://toot.wales/tags/Music" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>Music</span></a> <a href="https://toot.wales/tags/PopMusic" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>PopMusic</span></a> <a href="https://toot.wales/tags/RockMusic" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>RockMusic</span></a> <a href="https://toot.wales/tags/Songs" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>Songs</span></a> <a href="https://toot.wales/tags/SoulMusic" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>SoulMusic</span></a> <a href="https://toot.wales/tags/RockNRoll" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>RockNRoll</span></a> <a href="https://toot.wales/tags/1990s" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>1990s</span></a> <a href="https://toot.wales/tags/1960s" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>1960s</span></a> <a href="https://toot.wales/tags/1970s" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>1970s</span></a> <a href="https://toot.wales/tags/FolkMusic" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>FolkMusic</span></a></p>

RuthSalter<p>Deleted the fb page of the student folk festival I founded way back when (since ended). We'd kept the page open for posterity, but as Meta openly conflicts with the values that were in our constitution we can't really keep it up. I hope one day to get all my documents from it to an archive, but it'll have to wait until post-PhD.</p><p>Onyway, here's a bunch of folk having a session up Arthur's Seat at the Scottish Universities Folk Festival 2015!</p><p><a href="https://mastodon.scot/tags/FolkMusic" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>FolkMusic</span></a> <a href="https://mastodon.scot/tags/FolkFestival" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>FolkFestival</span></a> <a href="https://mastodon.scot/tags/TradMusic" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>TradMusic</span></a> <a href="https://mastodon.scot/tags/Facebook" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>Facebook</span></a> <a href="https://mastodon.scot/tags/Meta" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>Meta</span></a></p>
