You are listening to a fiddle…no, it's a cello…no, it's a fiddle after all. And nice too.
Gavin follows up his Nyckelharpa album with another adventure in fiddle music on this, the Octave or Baritone fiddle, this latter title giving a broader hint as to the big bold round sound.
Well worth a listen.
