Kulning – Gjallarhorn

a form of song used in some provinces in Norway and northern Sweden, primarily by women, to communicate to each other and to call livestock down from high-mountain pastures. kulning can belong to families, who have their own tones and melodies, and are passed down from relative to relative– the animals of families can recognize these calls and respond to them, and often the bells they wear are tuned to the kulning itself, making it easy to hear them coming down the mountainside and distinguish which homestead they belong to.

i first heard this type of music on a livestream and i have been captivated ever since. i thought it was a beautiful and perfect example about how music is integral to our lives and how it runs through every part of our history and is used in every way for almost any and every purpose.

and after that long-winded blurb, listen! 🙂
