What in the world is that nyckelharpa I keep mentioning in my website?

This is one haunting instrument. Check out the little informative blurb from my friends at the Pegram Jam (which, sadly, is not happening at this time).

Scroll down to the link to hear me play a beautiful Swedish song “Brudmarsch från Malberget”, though it is quite the melancholy piece it sure is a stately wedding march.
I’ve played this instrument for dances, weddings, funerals and just for fun at jams.
For more information you can surf to http://www.nyckelharpa.org and also hear a sample on my Pickin Porch Radio page “Water is Wide”.
