Nyckelharpa

The nyckelharpa is a traditional Swedish stringed instrument, sometimes called a "keyed fiddle," played with a bow while keys are pressed to change the pitch of the strings, similar in concept to a hurdy-gurdy but bowed like a violin. It is central to Swedish folk music traditions and is enjoyed by folk musicians and instrument enthusiasts for its distinctive resonant, droning sound produced by its sympathetic strings.
