Folk music from Norway
From the beautiful, colorful folk music collection, I would like to highlight a folk instrument that has escaped my attention so far - the langeleik.
The langeleik, also called langleik, is a Norwegian stringed folklore musical instrument, a droned zither. The combination of the lone melody string and the multiple drone strings gives the langeleik a distinctively rich sound.
