With its peculiar timbre, the tagelharpa immediately evokes a peculiar ancient northern aesthetics. Conventionally, the first string and the third one (soloist) are tuned on the same note one octave apart, with the soloist being the higher, and the first two strings tuned 5 or 7 semitones apart. For example, A-D-A is a typical tuning of the tagelharpa.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Silence+Other Sounds","offers":[{"title":"Download","offer_id":40678352814160,"sku":"SS-NORD-110","price":99.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/1890\/5447\/files\/Artwork_7d87421a-8e46-4a41-b879-014f21a54977.png?v=1714004458"},{"product_id":"silence-other-sounds-cartago","title":"Silence+Other Sounds - Cartago","description":"\u003cp\u003eCartago is a Kontakt library built around an extensive collection of ancient, modern, and custom-designed cinematic percussions.
