Probably the most typical Swedish folk technique: the rullstråk or rolling bow. Let's grow Barbiedoll arms and learn its three main types !

Notes: My fiddle is in baroque tuning in this video, which means it's normal if my notes sound half a tone lower than yours. Also I had to use my old camera this time, hence the lower image and sound quality.

I'm Emelie Waldken, I play mostly Scandinavian folk music on nyckelharpa and fiddles, and I also teach music and traditional dances.
