Plønk - Zwei Polonaisen (Duo Christian Mohr Levisen & Björn Kaidel)

🎧 Also available on all streaming platforms: ploenk.dk/zweipolonaisen
Introducing Plønk - the new duo of Christian Mohr Levisen (Denmark) and Björn Kaidel (Germany)! We fuse our passion for folk music, captivating melodies and intimate duo playing to breathe new life into the Waldzither - a traditional 9-stringed plucked instrument from Germany.
About the tunes:
This is a set of two traditional polonaises from Germany. The first comes from the manuscripts of the Dahlhoff family (Dinker, 1767-1799) in North Rhine-Westfalia. We found the second in a manuscript called "Menueten Polonoisen et Bouren" from around 1740 that was discovered in the Bach archive in Leipzig (it's not written by Bach, though ;) ).

Pintorparfrun - Nyckelharpa

I got lucky and Olov Johansson (of Väsen) built a nyckelharpa for me. It's made entirely from Swedish wood, the craftsmanship is amazing, the instrument is super beautiful and the sound... wow! I hope the video can capture it somewhat. I'm really in love with it! Although I've been playing almost exclusively in D tuning so far, my plan is to keep this one in the traditional C tuning. Because I ...

This Polska efter Erlandsson from Uppland is a real classic! Probably everbody that plays kontrabasharpa plays it at one point or another... so here's my version. I first learned it from Josefina Paulson, who also got me interested in playing the kontrabasharpa ❤️

Senpolska från Haverö - Kontrabasharpa

มุมมอง 1Kปีที่แล้ว

The kontrabasharpa is a type of nyckelharpa that was popular in the 1700s. The main difference to the modern nyckelharpas is that it is a drone instrument and that the keyboard layout is different (one row of keys for two melody strings, almost like on a hurdy gurdy). The drone string lies inbetween the melody strings, hence the name "kontrabas". The first time I heard a kontrabasharpa in real ...

New year, new music :D Here's a tune that I wrote for a friend of mine without whom I might never have discovered all these super interesting German manuscripts full of great tunes. I've also been wanting to do some multi-track recording again for a while now, so I pulled out the good microphones, my Böhm waldzither, my cittern and my nyckelharpa for this. Even though I wrote this tune already ...

When I first started out playing Swedish folk music many years ago, one of the websites I was very thankful for was the site of Olle Gällmo, who plays säckpipa (Swedish bagpipes). It was (and still is) one of the few sites on the web that contains not just sheet music of tunes from Sweden, but also gives background information, historical facts, stories about the tunes, recordings, videos and s...

As you probably know, I play a lot of folk music instruments that go "plinkplonk" like the Irish Bouzouki and the Swedish cittern. Ever since I've heard that there's a traditional German plucked instrument called "Waldzither", I've wanted to get one. But they were built in the early 20th century, so you can only get them used and it's not easy to find one that is still playable. However, thanks...

A beautiful polonaise from a book called "Singende Muse an der Pleisse" which was released in 1736 by a student under the pseudonym "Sperontes". Love this tune, it's definitely one of my favourites. It's also quite well known and versions of it can be found in a lot of manuscripts from Germany and Sweden. Cittern built by Søren Vinther Røgen. www.bjoernkaidel.de bjoernkaidel instag...

Stumbled over this reel through Fergil Scahills "Tune a day" and felt like trying it out on my nyckelharpa! As it turns out, it's quite tricky to play on the nyckelharpa... but a lot of fun as well. I also felt like adding some guitar backing to round everything out. If you're familiar with Irish folk and have some pointers on my interpretation, feel free to leave a comment!
