Being so used to hearing the classic original, I just couldn't relate to the slightly overblown music arrangement for this performance. It sort of takes away from the light effect of the song.
Alison Krauss could have projected a bit better. It's a really great arrangement and maybe over the head of the vocalist who I'm sure is a beautiful singer 👩🎤
It is called "nyckelharpa", literally "keyed harp", but it is really a keyed fiddle. As you see, you stroke it with a bow like a fiddle, but instead of changing the tone of the string by putting the fingers on the string, it is supplied with keys which does the job. Used in Swedish (and Finnish?) folk music. A variant on the European continent, called the hurdy-gurdy, took the idea one step further, and did away with the bow. Instead a wheel, turned by the player operating a crank, constantly grinded on the strings to make the sound.
Great performances both the vocal and the musical arrangement Awesome! Bravo!
Beautiful! Loved it!!!
Beautiful arrangement. Just love the vibe they create in the room.
Beautiful song.
Nice, too bad the vocal is buried behind all the stage volume.
Beautiful

Her voice was almost completely drowned out by the instruments.
An absolute shocking cover of a timeless classic
Poor sound
C'est beau !❤❤❤❤
Nice string arrangements!

What is that monster (sorry) I mean musical instrument on our far left? Something Indian?
