19 Jul 12 - 06:22 PM (#3378911) Subject: Nykelharpa for sale - UK From: johnadams I'm selling a Nykelharpa. This is the one I bought from Sam Pirt when he advertised it on Mudcat a while back. It was made by Olle Plahn and is a three row chromatic as seen here and comes with a bow and a wooden case. I wanted either a nykelharpa or a gurdy to play with and I think I chose the wrong one so it's going for what I paid for it - £1600. If you're interested then PM me or contact me via my web site . If I've still got it in two weeks I'll be taking it to Sidmouth for folks to try out. |

(or if you want i can post a message there for you) There is also an organization for 'harpa enthusiasts...here: http://www.nyckelharpa.org/ I would love to upgrade to another instrument, but,alas, my budget does not allow! best of luck. (did you enjoy playing it? What tunes did you learn?) I spend a week each June at scandinavian music and dance camp learning new tunes! |

20 Jul 12 - 11:07 AM (#3379173) Subject: RE: Nykelharpa for sale - UK From: johnadams Thanks Les. I must fill in some of the gaps. I've got recordings and pictures of most of the bands - it's just a matter of remembering to devote a bit of time to it. The harpa is now sold. Now - shall I buy a hurdy-gurdy, a nice long neck banjo or put a deposit down on a Hardanger fiddle? Decisions! |
