RESONANS, a consort of professional musicians who bring a broad repertoire to unprecedented new life with the nyckelharpa.
The nyckelharpa or key fiddle was used for a short time in half of Europe at the end of the Middle Ages. Pushed out by the advancing violin family, the instrument survived in a small enclave in Sweden. There the nyckelharpa underwent a stormy technical development. The result: an advanced instrument with a masterful sound!
