Viola de Teclas (Nyckelharpa)
Outside of Sweden, (it’s country of origin) the nyckelharpa or ‘Violas de teclas’ is an instrument hardly known.
Attracted by its sophistication and profound sound, Ana dedicated three years to teaching herself this instrument in Toledo city. This album is a reflection of the hard work involved in this musical quest and was encouraged by Carlos Beceiro, producer and collaborator. The originality of the music consists in the use of this peculiar instrument, the Swedish nyckelharpa, combining it with Spanish music. Rebecs, violas and violins are also used alongside the Viola de teclas in this original presentation of Sephardic melodies, Castilian and flamenco rhythms and Renaissance pieces that make up the album.
Ana Alcaide first became known in May 2006, when she presented her first album in Toledo, which was greatly received by the public and critics. With this piece of work, Ana began her musical career by touring all over Spain and abroad, accompanied by Carlos Bereiro.
In the city of Toledo, the music of 'Viola de Teclas' has had a special repercussion, being listened to on different occasions and being used in promotional videos and many festive occasions thus becoming for many people the `soundtrack´ of the city.
