19. KYYNEL-VALSSI (Teardrop Waltz)

Kyynel-valssi (Teardrop Waltz) by Otto Hotakainen Dedicated to the master mandolin player Heikki Lahti (1934-2019) The music sheet/tabs for the song: https://drive.google.com/file/d/1I2kL... Techniques in how to play mandolin in Nordic folk music are pretty much the same as in bluegrass or in Irish music. You can use: a) pull-off and hammer-on techniques as well as slides to imitate fiddle bowing techniques and to make your playing rhythmically smoother in melody lines b) single grace notes (by using pull-off and hammer-on techniques and slides) to accentuate certain beats to make them stronger c) accents, upbeat accents or accented backbeat rhythm to make your playing rhythmically more interesting d) trills and ornamentations to make your music richer e) harmony voices, open strings, double-stops or drones to increase the fullness in your playing f) different pick thicknesses, size, shape, material and pick angles as well as changing plucking distance from the bridge (by picking in different locations along the strings) to create different tone colors (sound timbre) g) alternate picking (a continuous down-up motion of the picking hand, even when not picking a note) to keep it all going. Whatever the musical meter (time signature) will be, the strong beats should be played with down-strokes H) tremolo (for example in slow waltzes) to keep continuance Also, check out the separate video about Nordic mandolin playing techniques:    • 2. NORDIC MANDOLIN PLAYING TECHNIQUES
