Trollpolska | Nordic Rumour

A polska is a dance that is in 3/4 with the accent on beats 1 and 3. Most polska melodies have dotted quaver rhythms, putting them distinctly between a straight quaver waltz in 3 (3/4 time signature) and a straight triplet-ed quaver slip-jig which is also in 3 (9/8 time signature).

Enjoy Nordic Rumour's performance of 'Trollpolska' (aka 'Trollspolska' or 'Trollpolska efter Hans Börtas'), a Swedish folk tune from the Dalarna region.

Nordic Rumour consists of multi-instrumentalists Charles Harrison and Mike Eaton who both have a love for traditional Scandinavian tunes. In this video, Mike is playing mandolin and Charles is playing fiddle.
