      @@tagelharpalair very nice to hear, the more tagelharpa the better. The shorter vids are very good also when i lisen to them in a playlist but when lisening to them individually you have to look back on your phone and play something after it ends quite often. Anyways keep up the good work and keep the nordic spirit alive

      It is a Nordic instrument. It died out, except Finland, and in Estonia. But now its more popular than ever thankfully.

      @@Desp_Signe_Vougioukli you have to find the good range of tone with a tuner, for example on my own I got 3 strings, 1 is melodic, second one is high drone ( bordrone) and third is low drones ( bass) I use to tune the two first in 261 hz and the bass one in 185 hz, the two first must be tuned the same and the bass , try different tune who have any harmony with the first one , I don't know if it could help you cause every instrument are different according to their materials and the size of string

    so weird, @Tagelharpa Lair I tuned to right stuff c#4, g#3, c#3 and tried estonian and backside same thing just index middle and ring finger for practicing notes, mine sounds way off and not appealing to how you play, and when I try the middle string I barely barely hear it at all compared to yours.

    • @tagelharpalair
      @tagelharpalair  2 года назад

      the middle string should sit a little higher, than the outer ones, so the bow can catch it the same way. you can also try to use more rosin on the bow, or replace the strings.
