What is the difference between schottis and reinlender ? Where are the different names found ? How to understand schottis energy and rhythms ? How to learn to play them ?
Trying to answer to these questions and more ! Also I’ve never played as poorly in ages as in this video, I hope you can still hear and see the points I was trying to demonstrate.
The three words :
- Schottis (Sweden, Danemark, swedish-speaking Finland)
- Reinlender / Rejländer (Norway, parts of Sweden, NOT Danemark)
- Jenkka (Finland)
