The original story of the Kantele is related to Kalevala, the Finnish national Epic. According to the epic songs the first Kantele was made by Väinämöinen, the wise old seer. He took a giant pike jawbone and tail hair from a demonic horse to make the instrument. Luckily nowadays the construction is less of a hike. Many different sources point to the fact that traditionally each household had one kantele. It's supposed that the kantele was property of the head of the family. The instrument was often made and played by the same person, not mass produced by skilled carpenters like today. Traditional kantele was never an instrument of professional performers. #kalevala #finland #finlandia #nordic #epos #väinämöinen #vainamoinen #kantele #lyre #harp #gusli #kokle #kannel #kanklės #zither #psaltery #stringedinstrument #musically #music #musicalinstrument https://www.instagram.com/p/B4K643hgM2B/?igshid=1jq2daihtp2ao

Day 35/100 for my #100daysofpractice Trying different things tonight to make this Bach prelude sound more like how a cellist might interpret the music, specifically triple and quadruple stops. Due to the nature of the cello, many of these stops would be arpeggiated as well, but there are so many different ways to do so. #adamsstatepercussion #adamsstatemusic #adamsstate #percussion #percussionist #percussionlife #percussionista #drums #drummer #drumming #music #musician #musicianlife #classicalmusic #classicalmusician #orchestra #cello #cellosuite #bachcellosuites #stringedinstrument #chambermusic #chambermusician (at Adams State University - Music Department)

ORIGINS OF THE VIOLIN!!! ☕️...WHAT!!!! READ 👉🏾 The image is from a church in 👉🏾Kiev 👈🏾called St Sophia Cathedral. The Violin, the archetypal Goje The Goje is a one string fiddle from Nigeria. Snakeskin covers a gourd bowl to create a membrane head similar to that of a banjo. Horsehair strings are suspended on a bridge. The Goje is played with a bow…In Ethiopia and Eritrea, one finds similar traditional fiddles that are played exactly like the violin and which produce similar sounds. These traditional fiddles come from stone-age Africa. Before the first modern Europe was born, before any of the famous million dollar fiddle manufacturers were ever conceived, fiddles, the famous violins, have been created and used widely right across the African continent. Fiddles probably came into Europe by way of the waves of Moorish incursions which implanted their populations and culture in the European landscape, ages ago. #blackfacts #blackculture #violin #stringedinstrument #stringedinstruments #blackpeoplebelike
