Eric Sahlström, from Göksby near Tobo, is the diamond that the great and recent revival of the nyckelharpa rests on. His deep traditions, skill and solidity as a player, as well as his generosity made him a Master and a role model for us all during the 1970-80:ies. He also made a couple of hundred nyckelharpas beginning long before the revival of this precious instrument. In 1943 he was in the ...

”The building” - According to an invoice dated May 12th 1834, concerning work days, travelling and iron plates for the roof, this was the occasion when the belfry, on the other side of the road from the Älvkarleby church, was extended and got walls. The master nyckelharpa player Carl Ersson Boussard, "Byss-Calle” 1783-1847, happened to pass the belfry. They argued about who had the most difficu...
Dödens vals or Farfars-valsen

By or after Kalle Bodin, one of four very musical brothers. He lived in a little cottage in Esarby, near to Göksby where Eric Sahlström later lived. Kalle Bodin played the older kind of nyckelharpa, the silverbas, only suitable for the keys of C and G and he was an experienced player for dancing. He was an auctioneer and had the reputation of using doubtful words. He was also known for his abil...
Polska från Vendel i 3 repriser Traditionell
zhlédnutí 428Před 3 lety
Here is a typical polska, a bondpolska (farmers polska) from the parish of Vendel in the tradition of the Sahlström family. Eric Sahlström is the diamond on which the revival of the modern nyckelharpa rests. He lived 1912 - 1986. His experience and skill was endless. The swing of his music was solid as he was an experienced player for dancing. He also was gentle and generous, the same to anyone...
Vendelpolskan by Viksta Lasse, Leonard Larsson
zhlédnutí 1,2KPřed 3 lety
Made in July 1975 at the Vendel Eric Sahlström spelmansstämma/fiddlers gathering by Leonard Larsson - Viksta Lasse. Our masters would never use the word ”compose”. They just made the tunes or put them together. In the late afternoon in the shade of the big maple trees Viksta Lasse had some fika (coffee). Suddenly he grabbed his fiddle (that was a gift from the Swedish king in the 1960-ies) and ...
Som dom kom så gick dom

"Som dom kom så gick dom”. ”As they came, they went”. The fiddler Gås-Anders (Goose Anders) 1815 - 96, had been entertaining the university students in Uppsala and as usual earned good money this time paid as paper bills. On the way home, a bit tipsy, he stopped at a bridge over the Fyris river in northern Uppsala and laid his bills on the railing. A gust of wind blew the bills into the water. ...
Över sjö och land
zhlédnutí 485Před 3 lety
Över sjö och land (Over sea and land). I have always played this polska while in the USA. It has its origin in Malung in the province of Dalarna. Malung is close to Norway and the province of Värmland which can be seen in the dance and heard in the fresh style/dialect of the music. Över sjö och land is in the tradition of Lejsme Per Larsson 1822 - 1907. Lejsme is dialekt for Lie-Smed (scythe sm...

Visa från Utanmyra
zhlédnutí 2,1KPřed 4 lety
Visa från Utanmyra, one of the most beautiful melodies in Swedish folk music, spread all over Sweden in the 1960:ies by the jazz pianist Jan Johansson. ”Visa" means song and it has a long and sad text. You can play it with more or less energy depending on your mood.
Fan på Gräsö
zhlédnutí 628Před 4 lety
Gräsö (Grass island) on the Uppland coast is Sweden´s 10th biggest island. No one knows what Fan (The Devil) has to do with Gräsö and there is no story behind. It is a typical dancing tune for the ”Bondpolska” (Farmer´s polska) danced in couples. On CZcams you will find Bondpolska and how it is danced. There is a saying that, once you have left the ferry on to Gräsö, Swedish laws do not apply t...
Hem från Gesunda

The story goes that Eric had been playing at the 60th anniversary of the first contest for fiddlers and horn players in 1906 at the foot of the Gesunda mountain on the western shore of lake Siljan in the province of Dalarna. His son was driving the car home with Eric playing in the back seat. With the inspiration of all the tunes from Dalarna, that he had heard during the day, he composed this ...
Eklundapolska nr 1

Viksta-Lasse, a born musical artist and fiddler, was a student of the famous Hjort-Anders who had given him as home work to practise a certain phrase, common at that time, seldom played today. While practising the phrase it grew into a whole tune. The phrase is in the beginning of the first part played twice. He played it different ways during his lifetime which sometimes created confusion amon...

Jan Ersson, with the nickname Gulamålaviten, in northern Uppland was born 1799 and died only 47 years old. He was married twice and had 7 children who praised his kindness. He was contemporary with the famous Byss-Calle and both must have been very skilled, maybe competitors. There are many stories about their magic tricks to sabotage each other playing at weddings and dances. This tune shows t...

It's much like bowing on a Violin.
Jätterbra spelat! Pedagogiskt och bra på alla sätt! 🙂

Gardar Svavrason från Sverige kringseglade island med sina män, övervintrade i Husavik, byggde hus, och fortsatte resan tillbaka till Rökviken, klockvis, (Reykjavik), bestämde att Island var en Ö. "Eya"
Lång tid mellan vikingatiden, starka hövdingar, båtar ,Kiev-Rus i Gårdarike och Bondpolska i Roslagen :) Våra "såta" vänner i Norge och Danmark, de åkte västerut på sina äventyr och resor på gott och ont, precis som vi. Det var ju enklare att resa öster Därut till Rusland, om man bodde öster om kölen på båten. Den ligger uppochned med kölen upp i dagen, för de oinvigda. Den första mannen eller människan som kringseglade Island var svensk och hette Gardar Svavarsson. Han har gett nam net Husavik på Island, för han byggde sig ett hus i fjorden, när han övervintrade. Sedan fortsatte han sin resa klockvis och konkluderade att Island var en ö. Vilken lycka det är, att vi har två kön, man och kvinna. Ja, även fåglar är glada på den punktem, även om vi människor knappast kan se skillnad på dem. (ofta)
If there wasn't any stomping it wouldn't be Leif Alpsjo playing! And it isn't that loud. He is a musician that lives his music. I love to hear him. It's his "trademark"!
Thank you for your support although I agree that stomping is best when I play for dancing. I would not appreciate myself in a pedagogic film to listen to the tapping sound. Thank you for using my material.
Here I am with my dictionary trying to understand. the explanations, not much luck I'm afraid! What a language! But some very good playing and such interesting pieces.
Gubbskivan, which was produced by national fiddler Leif Alpsjö, is a document of the times. Several generations meet here, each with their own special area, but still all within the same framework - songs from northern upland. Participants include Viksta-Lasse, Sven Larsson, Eric Sahlström, Curt Tallroth, Bo Larsson, Leif Alpsjö and Gunnel Viking. Layout and photos: Caj Söderberg Recorded in 1979 from Google translate....... but seems to make sense to me
A. very. good Sunday morning concert! Wish I was there!
Det är bra spelat.
I use Prim Medium Tension Nyckelharpa Strings which are basically Cello Strings made shorter (and lighter gauged) for the Nyckelharpa since it's in a Viola Tuning (and Viola Pitched). The Nerdy Harpa kit has Pyramid Electric Guitar Strings for the Sympathetics & they're pure nickel wound.
Dancing music is the best 🪕🎵
Love this simple hunting melody. Thanks Leif and happy new year
Varför började jag men ett 500 kg piano ?...
Fantastiskt.
Vay over me, just playing Ragtime 35 years ago, on a simple piano, violin or nyckelharpa way more advanced. Vad gäller fiolspel, så var det nog mest hatch-fiol med björntråd och klädnypa i fönsterblecket när jag var barn. Blev jagad i natten när vi avbröt en möte mellan en man och en kvinna, haha.
Jag är full som en Kaja men kunde förr spela piano spik nykter, bättre med rag-time.
Fantastiskt
Når man bär kistan med den döde i til graven..
Grazie!
Tack för att ni delar hela LPn! Den är storartad!
Hello Leif, Many thanks for this pedagogic version and other ( Bygnnan, Splelmanglädje, etc ) Its very interesting for learning some Sweden tune . Congratulations from France.
It's ALWAYS Twinkle! Takk!!!
I found this tune from you; czcams.com/video/B3wkVonL0ug/video.html You should add it to your chanel, that's the most beautiful tune I have heard played on nickelharpa! Thank you for sharing your knowledge! A respectful thanks from Canada!
Vi sjöng den här med kören, det är min favorit folksång.
Great! every nyckelharpa amateur should watch this. I see so much bad bowing...
Fantastic
Got one of these things. Now to learn to play it.
This is incredible 😍 thank you so much!
bra det der
1st part of Beethovens violin concerto...
Tack för dina videor, Leif. Vem har byggt din harpa? Den är riktigt snygg.
Oj, jag önskar att jag haft lite mer tålamod med lektionerna du försökte ge mig när jag var 7 eller så. Nu sitter jag med en blockflöjt i Belgrad och försöker hänga med i rytmerna men förstår nästan ingenting ^_^' Jag hittade noter på den här någonstans och lärde mig fel, för noterna ligger inte alls så nära sanningen. Men när jag hör dig spela den så väcks det lite barndomsminnen nånstans också minns jag: "just ja, precis sådär ska det låta!". Det tog många år innan jag upptäckte att den här musiken är något jag bär med mig. Hälsningar från Göksby-Petter
Mycket fina drillar!
“That happy tune is your step” - thank you for the smile you’ve given me today. Beautiful!
May I know what's the name of this musical instruments? Never seen it before. Thanks!
Nyckelharpa :)
excellent. thank you!
Hello Leif, I'm a Spanish looking for the best constructor/place to buy a nyckelharpa, could you give me some advice?
Please email to me <leif@alpsjo.se> and I´ll try to help you.
Thank goodness to the internet and you for making this !!!!!
Leif Alpsjö You are very welcome :) It's my pleasure. I discovered this lovely instrument yesterday and instantly fell in love with it. I will buy it someday (maybe next year) and start learning it. I'm a pianist and never played bowed string instruments before, will it be very difficult to learn it?
Dear hagyeong yeo As with any instrument it requires devotion, time and good instructions. Your musical experience will be of great help. I have been teaching the violin since 1971 and the nyckelharpa since 1975 and it is noticeable how much it means even if you "only" have been singing in an amateur choir. I have had two professional pianists as students, one from China and one from Japan and they are doing fine. Whenever you want a nyckelharpa, bow and case I´m here with very good stuff for reasonable money. Please contact me at <leif@alpsjo.se> or see my web site www.nyckelharpa.com I can demonstrate on Skype August 20 - 24 me and my staff give a professional course in playing the fiddle and nyckelharpa. You can rent a set during the week. Players come from four continents. We have a wonderful time together. You will find full information on my web site www.nyckelharpa.com. Please click on the british flag.
Alltså Bruno Liljefors far?
Det är till att vara aktiv på Tuben idag...
Riktig flott spilt!
Nice! I'm thinking of learning, I just love the sound, it resonates much better than a violin =O
This is very good information! Thank you very much. I am watching and learning before I get my nyckelharpa. Still saving up for mine!
Wonderful, clear, and resonant sound. Very inspiring! Yes.... it looks like scales would be fun to play on the nyckelharpa.
Thanks so much for this valuable advice. I plan to buy a nyckelharpa soon & will need some instruction.
In case you wish some help you are welcome to <leif@alpsjo.se>
Thank you for the wonderful left hand exercise, but especial the advice for avoiding "tennis elbow." I contracted that last internships sawing firewood, and it does take months to heal. The advice to frequently rest and stretch is of immeasurable worth. Thank you!
Härligt att se enny video! (till nästa gång borde du tänka på att fästa micken i ett stativ där den kan hänga, snarare än att sitta fast så slipper du få med stampandet)
Gör stampandet nåt då? Jag tycker det är häftigt!
WHERE CAN I BUY ONE, I DONT FIND ANY WEBSITE!
Please email to me <leif@alpsjo.se> and I´ll try to help you.
