In this video I have used my home crafted tagelharpa, this was my second build at the time. Being the Witcher 3's fan I had to cover this for being one of the best out of the OST.
I have used horse hair as strings, with the instrument's body being pine wood, and the soundboard topped with spruce. - เพลง
Cover level: Legendary

This sounds more intimidating than the original theme
I've never seen this instrument before. That looks and sounds amazing! And it looks like it takes an incredible amount of practice to play it. You, sir, deserve way more views and subs!
Thankyou soo much! truly glad you've liked it too 🙏
Tagelharpa is one of the oldest instruments. Still sound fantastic to this day.
Amazing cover ! 🤩 I really like the raw sound of the Tagelharpa !
Thank you so much! I agree, it is the beauty of its imperfection 😊
Absolutely beautiful. You remained so true to the original style but gave it new flavour. Excellent!!
Truly glad you liked it, thanks a lot!!
What a crazy instrument
omg, this sound is freaking good
Thank you glad you liked it 🙏
Always excites me to see new instruments being brought in to the covers. Your tagelharpa looks and sounds gorgeous!
I'm glad you liked it and also truly flattered! thank you so much 🙏
Awesome work ! The haunting ambience in the marshes owes so much to this sound. Well rendition !
Thanks so much! glad you liked it and the other elements that I added and recorded with it 💜
OMW! This is awesome! I literally feel like I'm actually in Crookback bog!
Thanks so much! my favorite zone indeed 💜
Exactly. He nailed it.
Beautiful!
My only qualm with this is that it simply isn't long enough. I could loop this endlessly.
Never expected such a comment, thank you sir!!
The first time hear and saw that instrument , amazing!!!! very beautiful sound.
The tagelharpa is indeed the most beautiful and spiritually connecting instrument for me personally! glad you liked it too 🙏
This was amazing, I love the raw sound of that instrument! The cover has now lead me to buying a Tagelharpa and learn it! Great job!
Thank you so much! :) that is dope to read!! I hope you enjoy your journey learning this beautiful instrument!
I don’t know what it is but the tagelharpa has such a distinct piercing sound. Amazing cover it sounds amazing
Thanks! 🙏 it is a beautiful instrument for sure, each tagelharpa has a different sound to it as well.
LOVE!
💜
Masterpiece
Thanks 🙏
omg, this is so amusing
I've heard this atmospheric instrument before, but didn't know, how people play it
Thank you so much!!
Thank you!!
Just saw this popping up in my recommended videos! You did an awesome job 💪!
Very atmospheric cover!!
Thank you so much man! I will never forget how you helped me a lot during my early tagelharpa building phase last year! 🙏 your builds are also insane! 🔥
@@vynteks
You are very welcome! I'm glad that my ramblings on reddit were of some help..haha ;)!
Looking forward to more music of yours!
@@VedunianCraft every tip counted for sure! :) thanks a lot again!
Excellent.
Chills. Just as the first time I witnessed them ladies…
Amazing sound!
Thanks a lot! 🙏
Awesome cover !!!
thank you!!!
Круто!! 😍
Amazing! Bro, I love this song too :)
thanks so much dude! :D
Honestly this is more fitting to that storyline even than the original. Absolutely awesome ❤
Thank you soo much! glad you liked it 🙏
If you're really a sultan, it's a surprise because it's almost like a homage to both medieval and northern music that Turks and Mongols also bow.
Few people are so cultured and in tune. Hats off, Chapeau.
It is my first name lol but yes I totally get what you're saying. thank you sir!
10/10 loveeeeee
Banger
Thanks!!

Very, very cool

Куда лучше оригинала передаёт атмосферу)
thanks glad you liked it!
great😍🔥
Thanks! 🙏
at some point in video, he painted Tagelharpa and continued! appreciated
Epic 🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥
owwwh
@@vynteks owwwwwh
This is the most unholy song I've ever heard of. Good job!
thanks a lot! 🙏
Lovely 👌!
Thanks so much! 🙏
@@vynteks You should try the Game Of Thrones intro main theme. Could be epic. Have a nice day.
@@MoritzMagicMusic I did actually do a rough playthrough and was thinking of redoing it! a very solid recommendation man thanks a lot! be safe :)
@@vynteks You're welcome. What tuning did you use for this track?
@@MoritzMagicMusic d-a-d, but throughout only used the high D string.
I love how slavic music an nordic are similar do to the varangian gaurd 😊 aka viking
I would guess that's also the instrument that was used for the game soundtrack.
Still, ...impressive !
Thanks!! Possibly in other parts of the OST, but for this one the original was performed with a gudok or some other instrument of its family :)
Nicely edited too, dude!
Thank you!!
@@vynteks The triquetra inlay is rad, btw
@@HempFlower3 good catch! thanks a lot :D
Wow it’s so haunting, I love it ! How did you tune each string ?
Thanks! my tuning was d-a-d but I've only used the D string in this vid :)
Больше мелодий из игр и фильмов! Кайф!
Thanks! more still in the make 🙏
This video made me buy one!! Could you possibly share the tuning setup on the strings ? This is fantastic !
That's insane! glad it was the reason you joined this beautiful side of instruments :)
I used black horsehair as strings, with tuning D-A-D I believe it was, but in the end I have only played on the first D string in this particular video. first string had around 35 hairs and then second string 45 and third string 55 for. you twist towards the same direction for all the strings and tie them.
@@vynteks oh wow, great info, thank you very much! Please if have any good source material or resources for any good sites that goes over any tips/how-to’s/etc. could you share them here, myself and many others would much appreciate it for our journey to master this amazing instrument!
@@Foxhoundable welcome! I am not an expert but learning through as well. I pretty much looked up around the web, you can find a lot of useful posts or ask for help in this subreddit:
www.reddit.com/r/BowedLyres/
There's also a Facebook group you can try searching the term "tagelharpa or bowed lyre" and it should show up some groups.
the rest you might find some useful youtube videos on how to string and so on.
Good luck!
This is amazing! Well done! I just got a tagelharpa myself, what tuning did you use for each string?
Thanks so much! I just used d-a-d tuning but maybe retuned a bit, anyway I've only used 1 string in this cover if it matters :) grats on your tagelharpa and enjoy the journey!
@@vynteks Ooh neat, I didn't notice you only used the one string, I believe I can tune mine like this as well
@@bertthebard it don't have to be, depending on your instrument's length you wanna tune it to sound just right dependently, (usually the seller would mention best tuning for each tagelharpa they are selling) I didn't stick to the original OST's tuning for example.
INCREDIBLE! Do you think you could share your Tagelharpa tuning? This sound is sou haunting, I really want to try it, and I don't know enough to figure it out by myself.
thanks so much! honestly I was playing on the first string mostly. but my tuning is d-a-d. its just the horse hair string and the specs of my tagelharpa that perhaps influenced this sound and not the tuning. also the mic position, I placed it on the top of the tagelharpa away from the soundbox and with some EQ I got this result :)
@@vynteks Thank you!
awesome!
Which instrument is it? It's beautiful!
Thank you so much! 😊 it's a tagelharpa
Gorgeous cover! Can you tell me the tuning peg to bridge distance on the lighter coloured instrument?
Thanks so much 🙏 just checked for ya and it's 57cm
Nice, thanks for the quick response! I'm drawing up a design for one that will include sympathetic strings, like a hardanger fiddle. Having an actual measurement like this helps a lot!
@@Guy_makes_thing most welcome! that sounds really interesting!! all the best throughout and enjoy it :D the whole process is truly fun.
WOW AMAZING SOUND WHAT IS THE TUNE OF TAGELHARPA?
thanks so much! I believe it was d-a-d, but I've only played on the first string in here so other ones were silent throughout 😅
There's just something about these "primitive" instruments. The beauty of "imperfection" trying to reach "perfection" or whatever. Or maybe it's just the grit of the construction that bleeds through the sound. I don't know but if I have to choose between the electronics of today and this sound...not a contest. I'll take the "primitive" over the "advanced" any day. Way more soul.
that is very true!! as someone who got involved in electronic and modern sounds and having discovering this primitive side of music, no comparison to be made indeed!
Luke it 😍
Thanks 💜
What sheet music or tabs are you going off of? I would love to learn to play this on one of my talharpa or jouhiiko!
Wish I did but I basically learned the melody by hearing since it's just easier for the long run. If you're new at it you can try slowing down the track and hit each note on your midi pattern in a DAW and replicate it in order figure out where they stand on your strings for example. good luck!
the best game
😳
wh-
how did you-
the strings are just-
how-
HOW DOES ONE KNOW WHERE TO PUT PRESSURE ON THE STRING WITH THIS I DONT UNDERSTAND AND I HAVE SO MANY QUESTIONS 😭😭😭
(it sounds perfect and I am amazed if it wasn't obvious enough already-)
LOL thanks so much 😅 If you're genuinely struggling with it happy to share my knowledge, but it is fairly easy just requires some research around the interweb on how others achieved their desired results 😊
Let's face it, all music from the Witcher wouldnt sound so perfect if we didn't play this game)
totally agreed! that's the whole point, the meaning behind it, or resemblance and sometimes nostalgic :)
I wonder which instrument is used for the original song?It doesn’t sound like a violin but tagelharpa
a gudok actually
@@vynteks no, that was the Byzantine lyra.
@@yar3333 ah its cousin, thanks for the clarification!
Revelation! This performance is likely the first of its kind that can be placed alongside the original. I cannot find this material on TH-cam - a Polish musicologist who was fascinated by Indian and Iranian music visited his grandparents on a farm near Warsaw, where he found musicians who use a certain sound that cannot be written with classical notes. It's exactly the same sound as in North India or Iran. It's played on a stringed instrument, some sort of violin variation. If anyone knows more, please send a link. I'm curious if that note is in this piece ;-).
Thanks so much! and that is so interesting I would love to find out as well!! will try looking it up sometime hopefully I might stumble upon it by chance :)
And ESPECIALLY this th-cam.com/video/3rHFd2oSAlY/w-d-xo.html Chceck whole album ;-). You may love it or hate it ;-)
@@borovik8714 that is quite an interesting mash up of styles they have that I've never heard before!
Where did u get your talharpa
I crafted it at home
That sounds so awesome! Do you happen to have tabs / sheet music for that you might we willing to share? 😊
Thanks! honestly no tabs I played the melody on a midi pattern in my DAW and changed the notes to match my instrument and started practicing from there. (you can slow the youtube vids it makes it easier) good luck!
@@vynteks Thanks :)
@@brinkiTOgo welcome!
@@vynteks Does your instrument happen to be a Tenor Talharpa? I want to buy a Talharpa and learn to play on it and am considering to buy a Tenor Talharpa rather than a "normal" one. Which tuning do you use? :)
@@brinkiTOgo I built it at home and I am not sure at which measurement one is considered tenor or normal but I just swung with it :p
Sounds really similar to an Erhu.
funny because I love Erhus! maybe that influenced the sound I aimed for in here.
Mlp?)))))
Привет из России. Вы лучший!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Огромное спасибо!!
Is this considered a bass tagelharpa?
somewhere in between, a little shorter than a bass one but longer than the typical small sized tagelharpas
@@vynteks thank you so much! I'm looking to buy my first one soon
@@Mickeymouse7727 no worries and good luck! 🙏
THis could be GentleBros of the Woods instead, damn good work though
lol thanks a lot!
what ?!
can you play this for 8 hours please?
I guess TH-cam's loop feature is a decent solution for now :p
not gay but there's a different instrument those hands could play
