About Loretta Kelley
Loretta Kelley is an American player of the Hardanger fiddle, or hardingfele. The hardingfele is a Norwegian stringed instrument; it has four strings that are bowed like a violin and four or five sympathetic strings that resonate underneath. It is usually decorated with a carved scroll, pearl-inlaid fingerboard, and ink decorations around the instrument body. AmerikaSpel is a mostly-solo recording of Norwegian dance tunes, many from the region of Telemark. The album Hambo in the Snow, which she recorded with the fiddler Andrea Hoag and the bass player Charlie Pilzer, was nominated for a 2007 Grammy in the Traditional World Music category.
