as a finn, i really would like to hear in some scene ancient "Jouhikko" instrument. It originates from that era.
The name it self comes from word "jouhi", which means "horse hair", and "jouhikko" means... well... finnish is hard to translate to any other languages, but mainly it means "a bunch of horse hairs"...
This is interesting instrument; you have three strings, but you play (mostly) only one of them, and with back of your finggers! :) Posted over a year ago
