\u00a0 This Schottis fr\u00e5n Idre<\/strong> is actually a tune from the village of Idre, in western Dalarna.\u00a0 There is a schottis dance variant from Idre, as well, and this is the tune that is most often used for that dance.\u00a0 In fact, the tune is so connected to the dance that most people do not ever name it as Schottis efter Storbo J\u00f6ns.<\/p>

You will find this tune in the repertoire of most Swedish fiddlers, and most non-Swedish fiddlers who play Swedish tunes.\u00a0 \u00a0It is played on fiddle, nyckelharpa, accordion, and by old-time dance bands.<\/p>

Here<\/a> is a YouTube video of a fiddler demonstrating the tune.\u00a0 \u00a0Note that the tune is in D major throughout, with the exception of just a few measures in the second part, though it gives the impression of\u00a0 the second part being entirely in D minor!<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t
