Good presentation, some comment. The last Säckpipare with tradition was a Gudmundsson. Died 1945, I think. A restart of säckpipa was tried in 1950:th but didn't worked out. The restart that worked in 1980:th was colaboration between Leif Eriksson and Per Gudmundsson (not related to the other Gudmundsson). I first saw Per Gudmundsson around 1983? at Bingsjö Spelmanstämma (can really recommended that, first tuesday wendsday in july each year, with lots of other spelmansstämmor that week in the same area) and fell in love in the instrument instantly. Started to play year after and then took too course in FFF (Falu Folkmusic Festival) for Jan Winter and Bengt Sundström. Olle Gällmo have a really Great information web site, as expected as he is a computer scientist. I introduced him to bagpipes in 1992, I think, and soon he knew it all and got mutch better then me. 😜 Stefan Ekendal from Blå bergens borduner are now making bahpipes after Leif Eriksson, and I really do like it, my second pipes after my first Leif Eriksson. Both Anders Norudde (former Stake) and Stefan Ekendal was in the first course about säckpipa. If one want to get a säckpipa, check Olle Gällmos web site. About klarinett, it was used in military music, and as each Village had to support one soldiers. And when one needed to dance, anyone that knew music, would play dance music. Thus the use of klarinett. Fun fact. In Norway there are folk klarinettes that are much simple, without all those valves. Anyways, good overall information.
Of interest may be the documentary "Man med sälgpipa" which adresses the sälgflöjt tradition in sweden as it existed in ramsele. Sadly SVT has chosen to take it down.
I'd love to know the name of the instrument that was featured in Abba's instrumental tune: 'Arrival'. I don't know it it was Swedish but I got the impression it was: lovely sound from it.
Absolument, c'est vrai ! Toutefois, ici je parle d'instruments dont la forme exacte n'a pas varié depuis leur première utilisation dans l'histoire, ni leurs matériaux de fabrication, qui sont donc exactement les mêmes : les flûtes paléolithiques ne sont plus jouées aujourd'hui (sauf éventuellement pour des présentations d'instruments reconstitués dans des musées par exemple), tandis que les cornes, en corne, le sont encore en Suède ;)
@@EmelieWaldken Jusqu'à la mécanisation de l'agriculture (années 1950 environ), en Bretagne on utilisait des cornes aussi, ce sont les femmes qui les utilisaient pour appeler ceux qui travaillaient aux champs, pour leur dire que le repas était prêt. Un ancien m'a montré une corne comme ça à Rédéné (sud-est du Finistère), je crois que c'est sa mère qui l'utilisait.
@@EmelieWaldken C'est surtout connu parmi les vieux agriculteurs en retraite (plus de 80 ans). Moi j'ignorais avant d'avoir rencontré ce vieux paysan de Rédéné. Et encore, ils utilisaient pê pas tous des cornes, ça dépendait aussi pê de la distance entre la maison et le champ. Y en avait qui se contentaient de crier "prest e mérenn !" :-)
The kohorn was also used for dancing as well as communication. Here's a video of one being played: ua-cam.com/video/ZU0SB5xDV04/v-deo.html (this video isn't for dance, but traditionally girls did play for dance)
Thanks for the link ! As often with folk music and well, History in general, categories aren't rigid, so the vallmusik has also been used for dancing and leisure, while melody instruments have certainly also been used as tools for signals and such.
Wow! Early morning finds that I somehow am rewarded with. Thank you UA-cam and God. 🎉❤😊

Thankyou so much. This was really informative.
Loved your video!😍 A mail to Gunnar Stenmark is already out!🙈

Might this have something to do with a certain mysterious package?
Super vidéo, comme toujours

Great vid. Greetings from TX. How can a man get his hands on a sackpipa?
Thanks ! Sadly I don't really know much about säckpipa builders outside of Europe...
I don't mind paying for shipping from Europe. I'll do a little hunting on my end. Thanks
Hi! Jacob Williams, in Portland, OR, is building Säckpipa! This is his youtube channel: ua-cam.com/channels/M38TcGsI51ixV0pNtWm1uQ.html
I can put you in touch if you'd like, you can send me an email at amyhakansonmusic (at) gmail (dot) com.
Thanks Amy for the help ! Herbert, sorry I can't help more, säckpipa isn't my domain of expertise at all...

The German word for bagpipe sounds rather silly in English: "dudelsacke."
Who remembers the bagpipe scene from I Carly
Just had to stop and comment that Per Gudmundson is my friends(well, my ex) fathers cousin. Small world 😁
Also, you are so cool and inspirational!
Oh my, small world indeed ^^ And thanks so much for your support and kind comments !
