The secret about the Norwegian Harding fiddle is that it's got additional underlaing drone strings that are not played, but vibrates and make the fiddle sound louder and gives a more richer sound as if there are several fiddles playing simultaneously. One of our most famous violinists, Ole Bull, toured a lot all over the world - and people that wasn't familiar with this instrument suspected that he had additional musicians playing behind the curtain when he was on stage and played the "Hardingfele."

@@tomrogerlilleby2890 Even still, this tune is polyphonic, meaning in this case much of it is two strings being bowed (and fingered) at a time, unlike a basic fiddle/violin tune with a one-line melody.

@melvinklassen10 жыл бұрын
One tunes the fiddle by slightly turning the pegs. Note that there are 8 pegs -- 4 strings are bowed, and 4 strings (under the fingerboard) are "sympathetic" -- they just resonate when the other 4 strings are bowed. I've seen hardingfele players retune their instrument, just to make it easier to finger a specific tune, i.e., tuning a string or two up/down by a tone or semi-tone.

Usually, a fiddle is tuned aproximately one whole note higher than regular violin tuning, and there very rarely exists any sheet music for it so far as I know. I play myself (though I'm only a beginner), and the most used method of learning is teacher to student during lessons, and the tunes are all remembered by heart. I can of course not tell wether the fiddler in this video learned to play by ear or if he was taught, but it could possibly be a bit of both. Hope that answers your questions ^^

So many new comments and I have been too lazy to respond to them all, sorry... Thanks for the nice words, and I'll get around to responding better another time. The instrument I'm playing here is a "Setesdalsfele", and it was made in Norway by Leif Salve Håkedal. He regularly ships new instruments to other countries, including the US. My other instrument is a hardingfele, also made by Salve. Maybe one day I'll get around to making a video about them.

Why do you hold the fiddle against your chest instead of under your chin? I've heard that some traditional fiddlers play that way, but I've never actually seen it done. It looks kind of awkward, and it seems like it would be harder to reach the strings! Were you taught that way, or did you just decide it worked better for you?
@tomrogerlilleby28906 жыл бұрын
hummingfrog - Many Norwegian fiddlers prefere it this way. It is probably no other reason than this is the way that comes natural to them. This is dance music - so the fiddlers would sit down all evening playing. This music was not meant for a man standing upright in a concert hall playing for an audience. He was more like a discjocky at a dance gathering - or a wedding - or a feast of some kind.

On hardingfiddle you always play in first position, so there is no need for a shoulder rest to hold the violin tight when reaching for high notes(above first position) and vibrato etc, as you would on a classical violin. It's the traditional way of playing hardingfiddle, and personally I find it much more comfortable than using a shoulder rest, which I find awkward and not very ergonomic for hardingfiddle style of playing. It's easier to reach the strings, not harder, and allows the bow hand to be in a much more ergonomic position when playing
