    The hardingfele is a transposing instrument, so when it's tuned in B-E-B-F#, the written C for the hardingfele is a cocert E and when it's tuned in A-D-A-E, the written C for the hardingfele is a concert D.

    • @nesvigr
      @nesvigr 27 дней назад

      Close! If it’s tuned like a violin, but with a high bass (A,D,A,E), which is uncommon, if you read sheet music (also uncommon), it wouldn’t be transposing, except for the lowest string. In the common tuning of B, E, B, F#, if you read sheet music, you either transpose a while step down, or you would know that if you see a C on the page and play a C on your instrument, it would sound as a D. I hope that is helpful!

    what is the secret to restringing the sympathetic strings , keeping them from crossing each other under the fingerboard so that they resonate...?

    • @nesvigr
      @nesvigr 6 месяцев назад

      They go under the fingerboard and each have their own lane they stay in so they don't get tangled. :) I have never re-strung mine before! I let a luthier who has experience with Hardanger fiddles do it for me.

    • @cliffsandifer3877

I also am learning that I like to tune top strings DADD (tre-bass) and sympathetics to E Grieg melody which you ? showed in video) i am enjoying my hardanger fele. i have been playing Scots Irish on it respectfully on it

    can the sympathetic string tuners be lubricated with the "lubricant crayon" that I use on the "superior" strings? and make tuning 'easier and stable"

    • @nesvigr
      @nesvigr 6 месяцев назад

      Oh wow! I've never heard of such a thing! Do you have more info? The sympathetic strings tend to stay pretty stable on my instrument. It's the top gut strings that are more temperamental, but it also depends on the instrument!

    I often think that the Hardanger fele is made for playing across water. Sounds that are played for the girl ...on the other side of the fjord.... who you met at the wedding last year and fell in love with. Who listens and can't escape hearing your beautiful playing, and knowing it's meant for only her. And who knows that you will meet again at the baptism, in the spring...and maybe wonders if one day she might be persuaded to have your house-keys hanging from her silver bunad belt.
