- "The Cow's Horn", performed by Ale Moller (www.alemoller.com) in concert at the Institute of Musical Traditions (www.imtfolk.org), Takoma Park, Maryland, USA on March 24, 2012.
Ale Möller creates his own landscape of music upon different musical traditionsof various origins. He operates freely, motivated by his own curiosity. His inquiring ambitions have been transferred to a wide audience, fascinated by the complexity of his music and intoxicated by his movement of the entire landscape.
The Möller signature is recognized by its significant drive, where there's always a tone that wants to move on by its own free will. Ale Möller can create a "craze-joy" like no other, both on and off stage, which is his explicit goal. As a musical storyteller he is very determined in his ambitions, as he started out at an early age playing the trumpet.
Later on he fell in love with Greek music and the Swedish folklore tradition, especially music from the Swedish province of Dalecarlia. Being a multi-instrumentalist, he can handle instruments like mandola, accordion, flute, shawm and cowhorn -- but foremost Ale is a musician that works his way into the very core of the traditional music that he encounters, no matter if the style is Greek rembetika or sulky triple tone.

I'd love to hear the cow horn as part of a jazz ensemble.
check Art Blakey and the Afro-drum ensemble
@@peterpiskov1165 Karl Seglem : it's a goat horn but it will do I guess!
hehe, Imagine an 11th-century Scandinavian shepherd sitting on the hillside playing this thing...
imagine hiking through modern sweden , camping for the night and hearing this at midnight, and your swedish friend goes "no..dont go outside..it will take you"
I bet thus is a very mastrfully crafted cow horn. Despite its primitive origins.
Sounds fantastic.
No its`not.Try out Einar from Norway.

@@Alkis05 this type has only three holes.
@@NicholasKonradsen What I mean is that he uses the main outblowing hole (I don't know the technical term for that) to change the pitch too.
Wow as I played this my boxer dog has started howling to the ancient sounds.
Very beautiful
Shades of Miles........... Beautiful!

i came across a cow's horn the other day, trust me its way, way harder then it looks!
my dad made them growing up...actually it is way easy to play- as long as you have good lungs...
@@chewysplace3542 Well. No.
@Julien F Sounds like a skalmeja (bagpipe without the bag) or something like that.
But it looks hard af
you have to take it of the cow first...
Fechin love this ...I have a warhorn and yes 😂😂 the neighbourhood can hear . I live in Leith , Scotland .
I imagined one of those marked with the Ericsson logo and bluetooth rune XD
My Dogs listen to this Intently I like it too
WOW !! That sounds really beautiful
Very good!!!!!!
Wow that was so amazing
I also also recommend conch shell trumpets
Amazing
Truly Amazing.
This amazing! Beautiful music! So I have to ask, does anyone here know where you might buy one of these, or a good source on learning how to make one? I mean getting a horn and drilling holes in it is easy, but I'm wondering about hole spacing and how it might affect tuning
Contact Ale Moller
I think the placement of the holes doesn't matter... It's their sizes that matter, and decides how much air is let through when not covered by your fingers.
@@imtfolk can you reach this instrument... how much does it cost
This is an old comment but if you're still interested there are several good videos on yt for it, just search "cow horn flute" you should find it, considering the fingering holes to my knowledge the first hole should be in the balance point of the horn when held upside down the second and third is where it is most comfortable then the tuning to get a clear tone is a matter of expanding the holes until you are happy with the sound basically, you could most likely tune them but going by ear would most likely get you close enough.
you are amazingly good at this. lives in sweden my self with two horn trumpets in the garage, mabe time to take then up start play a littlebit
Impressive (y)
Awesome :)
Came here looking for dnd instruments lol
Horn notes were also love notes 😂 personal messages
Holy shit!
Is he buzzing like trough a trumpet?
how do you calculate the position of the finger holes?
Balance it over your index finger, the point of balance is the first hole made. Then a hole either side of this main point is made.
@@davideddy2672
sounds really nice and easy!
but probably it's more complicated, no?
@@Markus_Breuss Honestly, no!
@@Markus_Breuss = once that point of balance is found with your middle finger, drill your hole, then place your middle finger over this hole once again, as if about to play. Your index finger falls naturally in place as does your fourth to mark and drill once again. Cut your point end first of course, before you seek the balance point. A Dremel tool is useful for opening out the mouth piece.
@@davideddy2672
did you build yourself a horn with fingerholes?
wow
Very Miles Davis kinda tone :)
