I myself learned this tune just playing with Uppland fiddlers in 1974.\u00a0 \u00a0My nyckelharpa version of it is inspired by my experience playing it with the greatest harpa player of them all,\u00a0Eric Sahlstr\u00f6m<\/strong>.<\/p>

Here<\/span><\/a> is a YouTube recording of Sahlstr\u00f6m playing it on nyckelharpa in 1960.<\/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
