The Twisting of the Rope by Aryeh Frankfurter Aryeh Frankfurter : The Twisting of the Rope.
 Timeless and enchanting folk music for the soul.

The Nyckelharpa or "keyed fiddle" is a distinctively Swedish instrument with a history dating back to the 1400s. With its layer if sympathetic strings and rich alto-tenor voice, the nyckelharpa's unearthly hypnotic tone inevitably captivates and enchants listeners of this magical instrument. In The Twisting of the Rope, Aryeh cross-pollinates the haunting and otherworldly sound of the Swedish Nyckelharpa with evocative and universally appealing Celtic melodies to create a delightful and moving collection of heart-warming instrumental music.

Slow and medium tempo Celtic melodies that showcase the nyckelharpa's bewitching timbre and sound. The nyckelharpa is supported by the cittern, guitar, harp and other acoustic instruments. If you enjoy traditional Celtic music in the style of Loreena McKennitt. the Chieftans, or the Bothy Band you will enjoy these renditions of beautiful Celtic melodies.
