Arend (they) 🏳️‍⚧️😷🎙️🍉🏴🕊<p>Today I realized I had this recording in the vault (guess I'm starting to develop a vault, yay). It was previously only available one <a href="https://musicians.today/tags/BandcampFriday" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>BandcampFriday</span></a> back in 2020. Well it's here forever now! Please enjoy my favorite love song of the 90s, courtesy of The Magnetic Fields.

Ben! (Boo!)<p>Last night I listened to two Vic Chesnutt albums and then the first thing I did when waking up this morning was putting another on. Truly one of the most unique songwriters and singers of his era, I've been a fan since I was a teenager thanks to the endorsement of REM but now feel the need to add most of his discography to my master playlist.</p><p><a href="https://mas.to/tags/americana" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>americana</span></a> <a href="https://mas.to/tags/folk" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>folk</span></a> <a href="https://mas.to/tags/folkmusic" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>folkmusic</span></a> <a href="https://mas.to/tags/folkrock" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>folkrock</span></a> <a href="https://mas.to/tags/indierock" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>indierock</span></a></p>

regina_nyckelharpista<p>Today I want to offer a tune called "Nestling" to you! It was co-written by me and my partner Björn and it is about being brave and doing something you have never done before - something that might even have the potential to open a whole new world to you ... you never know! We decided to call it "Nestling" which is the same in English and German: a little bird, still in the nest, gathering the courage to leave it for the first time 🐦</p><p>I am playing the nyckelharpa here, Björn is playing a Nordic style cittern.

regina_nyckelharpista<p>The nyckelharpa is a folk instrument from Sweden 🇸🇪 with a long standing tradition there. "Nyckelharpa" is a Swedish word, "nyckel" meaning "key" and "harpa" being a general term for a stringed instrument. Its key features (hah, see what I did there?) are the sympathetic strings and a keybox full of wooden keys. Some translate it into English to "keyed fiddle" 🗝️ 🎻 "viola de teclas" in Spanish or "viola d'amore a chiavi" in Italian - although it is not a fiddle or viola ;)</p><p>How it works: I produce the sound with a bow on the strings, like on any other bowed instrument, but instead of touching the strings with the fingers of my left hand and pushing them down on a fretboard or fingerboard to play a melody, I press a key. The key moves a little wooden tangent to the string and tada, the note changes 🎉 The magical sound of the nyckelharpa is created from its sympathetic strings (usually 12) which are enhancing every note I play on the four melody strings. </p><p>If you want to hear some nyckelharpa music, you're welcome on my duos bandcamp <a href="https://aklejafolk.bandcamp.com" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" translate="no" target="_blank"><span class="invisible">https://</span><span class="">aklejafolk.bandcamp.com</span><span class="invisible"></span></a> or search for "Akleja" wherever you like to stream music. More names you can look for there are Josefina Paulson, Hazelius Hedin, Emilia Amper, Väsen, Daniel Pettersson / Sotali, Erik Rydvall - there are so many FANTASTIC players out there! 😭</p><p>The instrument pictured here was made by Mats Wester.</p><p><a href="https://sunny.garden/tags/nyckelharpa" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>nyckelharpa</span></a> <a href="https://sunny.garden/tags/musiciansofmastodon" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>musiciansofmastodon</span></a> <a href="https://sunny.garden/tags/folkmusic" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>folkmusic</span></a> <a href="https://sunny.garden/tags/instrument" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>instrument</span></a> <a href="https://sunny.garden/tags/acousticmusic" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>acousticmusic</span></a> <a href="https://sunny.garden/tags/music" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>music</span></a> <a href="https://sunny.garden/tags/luthiery" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>luthiery</span></a> <a href="https://sunny.garden/tags/stringinstrument" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>stringinstrument</span></a> <a href="https://sunny.garden/tags/sweden" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>sweden</span></a> <a href="https://sunny.garden/tags/violin" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>violin</span></a> <a href="https://sunny.garden/tags/viola" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>viola</span></a></p>

Here's what I sketched...,</p><p>For me, it is clear that I need more music and art in my life to survive the trying times of our current imperial administration, so I'll be sharing more of it along the way.</p><p>BTW - if you want to learn about the next Heathen Revival, they aren't on FB, but they are on Instagram at: <a href="https://www.instagram.com/theheathenrevival/" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" translate="no" target="_blank"><span class="invisible">https://www.</span><span class="ellipsis">instagram.com/theheathenreviva</span><span class="invisible">l/</span></a></p><p><a href="https://c.im/tags/FolkMusic" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>FolkMusic</span></a> <a href="https://c.im/tags/Music" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>Music</span></a> <a href="https://c.im/tags/Oklahoma" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>Oklahoma</span></a> <a href="https://c.im/tags/LGBTQ" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>LGBTQ</span></a> <a href="https://c.im/tags/Heathen" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>Heathen</span></a></p>

It's a great, fresh performance - it shows how folk and trad music have a timeless kernel magic that is renewed by every generation. It's sung, I think, in a mixture of standard Scottish English and Doric, but it's perfectly understandable to my ear.</p><p>More about the Turra Coo here:<br><a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Turra_Coo" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" translate="no" target="_blank"><span class="invisible">https://</span><span class="">en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Turra_Coo</span><span class="invisible"></span></a></p><p><a href="https://mementomori.social/tags/FolkMusic" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>FolkMusic</span></a></p>
regina_nyckelharpista<p>Hello everyone! 👋 My name is Regina, I am a folk musician playing the nyckelharpa (a Swedish bowed instrument with sympathetic strings) based in Germany. When I'm not playing tunes or travelling to a gig, I can most likely be found in nature, growing plants, baking bread, doing pottery, befrieding cats or crafting things. It's lovely to be here and I'm looking forward to get to know lots of cool people here on Mastodon! Feel free to ask me anything! 🌱<br><a href="https://sunny.garden/tags/introduction" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>introduction</span></a> <a href="https://sunny.garden/tags/nyckelharpa" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>nyckelharpa</span></a> <a href="https://sunny.garden/tags/gardening" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>gardening</span></a> <a href="https://sunny.garden/tags/folkmusic" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>folkmusic</span></a> <a href="https://sunny.garden/tags/pottery" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>pottery</span></a> <a href="https://sunny.garden/tags/crafting" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>crafting</span></a> <a href="https://sunny.garden/tags/MastodonNewbie" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>MastodonNewbie</span></a></p>
