Ethno NZ 2018 performing "Hårgalåten", a traditional tune from Sweden brought to us by Paulina Sjöberg on nyckelharpa. Auckland Folk Festival, 28th of January 2018. Video: Jack Bramah
A swedish myth when its at its best Hårgalåten is a music tune The devil played on a golden violin at a party near The hårga Mountain and made The young men and woman dance up too The Mountain top. There The devil jumped up in a tree and still played this tune until The People danced too their death. He was dressed in black suit, had a big hat, red eyes and one of his feet was a goat hoof. I know its a very dark story but it gives The song a magical touch. Anyways wonderful preformance, love This version very much. There is lyrics too The song too

Does no one have an objection to the correction? Hårga is in Bollnäs county, which is definitely NOT in the west! While it's an hour away from the sea, it's still along the east coast. So the first guy was right. The Hårga tune is from central east Sweden
That was presenting the first song that was before the applause in the beginning of the clip. "Tre lå" is a folk song from the Swedish west coast, awaiting boats back from the sea. Other than that, all you say is right about the location of Hårga.
The well known legend of when the Devil, disguised as a fiddler, made the youths of the village of Hårga, in Hälsingland, dance themselve s to death, upon the mountain of Hårga.
It wasnt in midsommar. The hårga in midsommar is a fictional recreation of the hårga in this song. they really share no other similarities. (I know it's a year old comment but ive seen to many and im venting xD)
"Midsummer" is a nonsense movie and tells nothing about Swedish folklore. It takes up some elements and distorts them completely. The real Midsummer is a celebration of joy and beauty and no horror thing. Sick fantasy. - But Hårgalåten is a great tune and very wellknown here in Sweden.
@@himfromscandinavian5354 Inte nödvändigtvis, hon kanske har en svensk förälder som lärt henne, eller bodde hon i Sverige som liten, eller något helt annat. Det finns så många möjligheter till varför hon skriver på dålig svenska.
@@BurnBird1 Kan nog bero på många saker. Möjligheten att hon har haft svenska föräldrar som har lärt henne att prata svenska till viss del är lika stor som att hon kanske sitter och studerar svenska just nu. Vem vet? Jag känner inte henne

Golden fiddle*
So cool!!! much love from Sweden🇸🇪❤
Our heritage. The 16/36 beat is so Swedish, and reused in really good jazz from the Swedish jazz explosion of the ‘60s.
Sounds like a regular 3/4 to me.
@@c.a.t.732 There seem to be two syncopated beats that disturb the 3/4 default. I may be mad. 😆
@@johankaewberg8162 The drummer at the far left of the state is definitely adding syncopation to the proceedings.
Sensational ! Beautiful song 👏👏👏🎼🎶🎹🎸🎻🎷
Love from 🇸🇪
så jäkla bra
Wow! what an incredible performance of u all, one of the best versions ever of this song.

Åh, vad fint!

О, а что за музыкант? Интересно!

Hade hon i hatten bockfot?
Så bra spelat av er alla.

Nicely played
What's the name of the instrument the red haired girl with the hat is playing? It looks so interesting and beautiful
nyckelharpa
I wanted to listene to it since I watched Midsummer
It wasnt in midsommar.

Trist is the unnofficial national anthem of Sweden.
I have lived almost a year in Bew Zeeland. Lesrnt to sail takawaka there. Maoris are my People.
who is playing the lead nyckelharpa?
Paulina Sjöberg
Jag verkligen önskar på lära mig nyckelharpa, men Jag Bo I österikke, så Jag Kan inte 😭😭😭😭🥺
Jag önskar verkligen att jag kunde lära mig spela nyckelharpa, men jag bor i Österrike, så jag kan inte.*
Studerar du Svenska?
@@BurnBird1 Förmodligen efter som att hon påstår att hon kommer ifrån Österrike och skriver på svenska

An aussie playing nyckelharpa?
No one is singing?
Låten är en standard, men inte så mycket sången.

Without the lyrics its not fun. It's about the devil making the young ones dance until they die.
Nu har vi ju inte några tradisioner här i Sverige enligt vår regering, så vi firar ramadan i stället
Inget som skriker SDare så mycket som någon som inte kan stava :)
Nej vad är svenskt....säger Mona Sahlin som nästan blev statsminister...
