Stor tack för.du för den svenska.kulturen vidare.
Så. Fantastiskt vackert och VIKTIGT!
The gods are smiled at me when I found your channel. I have an addiction to culture, folksongs and folklore. Specially European.
It is heartwarming to see how you love your culture and tunes. We must protect that at any cost, in my understanding this is how we are living through life and death. Our language and culture is the most important thing to preserve.
I would listen to your singing untill the sky starts falling. My heart is full of joy, when I watching your videos.
Thank you Emelie, you restored my faith in humanity.
your version is mystical
Vackert framfört och tack för ditt bidrag till vårt nordiskt musikaliska kulturarv ❤
Beautiful in every way!
I love Gjallerhorn! So glad I found your channel. Greetings from California!
fantastic sound Emelie!And lovely tune.Thank you!
Hello! Someone told me that you refers to me in this video. I really like your version too! You give the tune the right waltz feeling! I'm looking forward to watch more of your videos. /Miranda
Yes I did because I like a lot the version you recorded :) Thanks a lot for the compliment !
Also, I think it's fair to say you both have a dialect.
So beautiful! I love this channel.
Fall in love in 5 minutes for u and u instrument..It s a record!😍
Thank you for sharing your singing , and your playing too! I love the sound of the nyckelharpa.
Beautiful waltz, indeed! Thanks for sharing!
Friendly greetings,
Thomas
OMG ... so beautiful!
How come I rarely hear you sing? You have such an amazing voice.
Thank you ! I am quite shy with my voice. I love to sing (I sing all the time at home and at work) (I work in agriculture so it's not like I would disturb people in a room ^^) but my voice is quite unstable and I never practiced it "seriously" so I feel I'm not at all at a similar level with it than with fiddle and nyckelharpa. Working on it though.
@@EmelieWaldken Well you definitely sound a lot better than I do. My dad's music teacher, when he was in high school, told him that he would pass the class with a C if he promised to never sing again. That shows the musical talent in my family. I couldn't clap to a church choir without messing it up.
Loved this!
I really love it ! Keep going like that ! 😊
I can't decide which I love more, your lovely playing or your beautiful singing. 🎉
Mostly. I love your videos! Thank you so much!
Thank you so much =)
Lovely.
You make me dance! Thank you for this playing and singing of such a beautiful and sweet song, and also thank you for the link to Miranda Samuelsson's beautiful singing version!
Also I'm curious about the pronunciation of "Öland" compared to "Åland".
Thank you very much !
Öland starts with a sound like the [u] in "bus" or "ahum" in english, more or less. Aaland (sorry, can't type nor copy-paste the a-bubble today, computer is stupid) begins with a very deep and round [o], a bit like "Oowh". Kinda.
LOVELY VOICE
kamu adalah pahlawanku 🌹🎻
matur suksma
I think this tune might go into my tune book..! I like it! :)
You'd better put it into your tunebook indeed, I'd love to play it with you - plus I have a very nice second voice to it ;)
Thank you that’s fantastic
Love it! I'm going to give this a try on the harp ;)
It should sound super lovely on harp ! Looking forward to meet you again and play that tune (and others) :)
Nice.
On adore! Une idée de lien pour la partition? J’adorerai essayer de le jouer au violon. Tussen takk! On fond dans la chanson qui nous transporte dans un espace mélancolique amoureux.
@Julien Blanc Oui, je donne les partitions sur mon Patreon =)
Hello Emilie! If it strikes your fancy I would love it you could make more videos of you performing all these little tunes, you make some of my favorite renditions of them but I can only listen to them in the middle of tutorials, I really wish you had proper recordings of them because they're so good :') Lovely informative tutorial as always!
Thanks for the nice message ! I've been thinking about making more recordings again, I miss it too actually ! I've just had waaaay too much happening in my life to be able to take anymore focus for the past months. But it's coming !
Over Fathoms Deep!! Johnlocked ❤️
Your brain is stronger than your arms.
Some people also got special strong mucles and tendons
Vackert
Hej Emelie! When I met this tune probably a music vid Siljan people were dancing langdance with it.
Hej ! I didn't know it could be a långdans too, thanks for the info :)
nice
You may already explain this on a different video, but how did you first meet the nyckelharpa, and was it a long time ago?
Around 11 years ago, I was very interested in learning to play it (had heard & seen it in a few different folk bands) and a friend of mine had just started doing so, she invited me over to a week-end course and I got my first 'harpa into my arms...
det är så vacker ... jag spela på vevlira
could u do a long version in the fast tempo mode please
Emilie, this is a wonderful tune. I would love to play it with guitar and sing it along. Can you help me with the chords?
Ive got a proposition for you : could you do videos where you explain things and others with only the music ? 😃
2:09 😍😍😍😍
what was the name of the band you said was your favorite?
Not a guess but I am hoping for more Halling tunes!
There will be some more for sure ;) but that's not the subject of the coming Scandi Folk Nerd video. Try again !
where did you buy this amazing map? :D
I made it ;) It's embroidered, cotton thread on cotton fabric, dyed with coffee. It's not fully finished yet ^^ I was so confused with all the regions when I went to Sweden for the first time that I decided to make a map of Sweden. Then I added Norway and then Danemark and now I'm on the baltic countries ^^
this version with nickelharpa please 🙏🙏🙏
That's Very Nice singing!!! What is the name of the band You mention in the beggining ?
Thanks ! I mentionned Gjallarhorn, which is my favourite band.
@@EmelieWaldken Thank you!! You should record an album!!!!!
@@Mr25ir I have ;) Two albums, with my previous duo Knep : knep.weebly.com/shop.html
What is her favourite band? Can someone write it out for me?
Answered several times in the comments already ;)
My favourite band is Gjallarhorn (well, was, as it doesn't exist anymore, bwaaaah)
This is real music.
Who can send me the scales of these music 😥😥😓☹️😢
I give them to my Patrons on Patron :) www.patreon.com/emeliewaldken
What is that intsrument?
nyckelharpa, swedish traditional folk instrument
@@EmelieWaldken where is it played? I thought only old generations play so unknown instruments.
Mostly in Sweden but there are players a bit all over the world, mostly in Europe and North America. Many young people play nyckelharpa nowadays !
Hej. Det är svårt att höra vad ditt favoritband heter,kan du skriva det som svar ?
Tack på förhand !
Ahhh förlåt ! Gjallarhorn var bandet !
@@EmelieWaldken tack. Tror jag hittat deras variation, kan det var O-vals?
@@svensktmopedrally9127 Precis den !
You singing...
Hej Emelie, thanks for the advice on bows earlier =) . I've been using the Gewa bow and it's a lot better!
One thing still has me stumped and that's positioning. Holding the nyckelharpa in a comfortable position seems to be an arcane art, with many people having their own ideas about it. Standing up I've been experimenting with Didier Francois' positioning as opposed to the traditional one which was causing issues with my right shoulder.
One thing that bothers me when sitting down is reaching the highest keys. How do you reach those when you're sitting like in this video? My leg always seems to be in the way!
Tack! Dommage qu'on ne t'entende pas chanter plus souvent dans tes vidéos
Aaaaah le menuett from Jeppo de Gjallarhorn !! Une merveille absolue ! Je vais me renseigner côté droits d'auteur et peut-être que j'en ferai une vidéo un jour - mais ce n'est pas prévu pour tout de suite. Et puis, je ne voudrais pas "gâcher" l'original, que je trouve tellement parfait tel quel.
Merci pour le chant ! Je ne suis pas chanteuse mais j'aime beaucoup chanter, malheureusement j'ai un stress énorme quand il s'agit de le faire en public (dans la cuisine, ça va ^^).
tu chantes beaucoup mieux que beaucoup de chanteuses professionnelles de maintenant :-)
Le menuett from Jeppo de Gjallarhorn, je l'écoute régulièrement depuis quasiment 20 ans et je m'en lasse pas :-)
Hahaha mais en même temps il y a tellement de chanteuses (et chanteurs) catastrophiques aujourd'hui ^^ Mes références à moi sont plutôt Jenny Wilhems (forcément), Sofia Sandén, Emma Härdelin, Johanna Bölja, Agneta Stolpe, Ulrika Bodén... Je chante mieux seule qu'en public ou en vidéo ^^' mais je suis trèèèèès loin de ces magnifiques voix qu'elles ont ! En même temps, ce n'est pas mon axe de travail, je suis plutôt dans les cordes et archets jusqu'au cou ;)
Ow how thin your arms are... Like a thing from Johan Bauer. Can they lift anything ?
Well believe it or not but I work outdoors and physically (on a farm). I've always been very thin, it's my nature. My entire family is pretty much like that. I do need to train my strength to avoid overloading my tendons and to manage with things I want to do, but training is good for everyone anyways !
Jag hörde sången om dåliga män som hellre super än att arbeta och göra rätt för sig.
