Here’s what they say concerning this video on YouTube:
The Music of Sweden shares the tradition of Nordic folk dance music with its neighboring countries in northern Europe, including polka, schottische, waltz, polska and mazurka. The accordion, clarinet, fiddle and nyckelharpa are among the most common Swedish folk instruments. The instrumental genre is the biggest one in Swedish traditional music. Swedish folk songs are dominated by ballads and kulning; the latter was originally used as a cow-herding call and is traditionally sung by women. The fiddle is perhaps the most characteristic and original instrument of the Swedish folk tradition.

You will be able to find most of these things in Norway as well, so perhaps it is more of a ‘Scandinavian thing’ than only ‘Swedish’?

Very likely so… I think I will change at least the title of the post. Thank you for stopping by and taking the time to comment. Scandinavia is such a beautiful part of Europe!
