Icelandic traditional music is a genre of folk music that has been passed down through generations in Iceland. It is characterized by its use of traditional instruments such as the fiddle, accordion, and guitar, as well as its unique vocal style. The music often features a call-and-response structure, with the lead singer singing a line and the chorus responding. It is often accompanied by traditional Icelandic dances such as the rímur, a type of epic poem, and the huldufólk, a type of folk dance. Icelandic traditional music is often seen as a reflection of the country’s culture and history, and is still popular today.
