Hey!
I Am Daniel.
When I was 16 years old I found the nyckelharpa. I had played the violin since I was 7, but the sound from the nyckelharpa got med hooked and I spent a lot of time learning how to play it. Lately I got some nyckelharpa students here in southen France where I live, and therefore I created this simple site. I am just a hobby musician and not educated in teaching, but I like to make other people discover and learn how to play the nyckelharpa. I am a Swedish Riksspelman on my instrument.

Some Feedbacks
What I AM saying
"I really love when there is a really good "schwung" when playing nyckelharpa. It is the perfect dance music! Almost like techno.”

"Isn't wonderful how I add some french influences in my own compositions?"

"10 000 hours and you are there.
That is what it takes to be an expert according to the experts."

"It is the bow in your right hand that makes the magic! To master your left hand you just need to train your muscle memory and press the right key as many times as possible!"
